All,

I would be wary of the advice below.  It is not the recommended way to
change the batteries (check out the user manual).  I always use the "change
battery" function after I get the "change now" message.  The only time I've
had any trouble is when I was using some rather old rechargeables that ran
completely out of steam before I could do the change batteries command.  In
that case I lost my settings.  Otherwise it has been fine.

Hi, I know it will not help now, but I have notice after my first unit broke
down, when you hear the message that you must change batteries, you must not
use the change batteries command, just change the batteries. I have not lost
my settings since. Only use the command when you decide to change the
batteries. It is a problem the developer need to look into. I also would
like an option to save my preferred settings over the default settings, so
that I can reload them when I reset the unit.

I used the change battery command, confirmed it, replaced with new
(non-rechargables) and now I have nothing.  I tried other new batteries.  I
tried leaving the batteries out for a while.  I tried reset, and still
nothing.  I have had my bookcourier for 3 years now without a problem.
Anyone out there have anything else I can try?  Thanks
