I would like to be able to have the settings saved to a file on the BP. This
would save them during battery change.

I like that, and it would seem that that might be easy enough to do,
assuming there is some memory in the BookPort where those configurations
could be saved where they would not be lost when you change batteries. I am
not clear on whether that is possible or not.
