    Re: My V1 is sick :(

    Just got my unit back from VR totally FREE OF CHARGE even though my V1 is way out of warranty! They found a bad solder joint on the display board. Gave me a tune up and even did a firmware upgrade...

    Southern California freeways

    How much heat will fry the V1?

    I noticed my V1 can get scorching hot when I'm driving under full sun on a 80-90 degrees hot day. I'll burn my finger if I touch it for more than a second. There's not much I can do about the heat...

    Re: Refurb/returned
