Carol,
Great that it worked for you. When I received my GPS about a month ago, I
remember reading that the battery used in the receiver is the kind that is
often used in cellphones. So we can buy it anywhere I suppose. When I
got mine, the battery was not installed so I had to do it myself. It was
easy though. If you need step by step instruction of how to replace the
battery when you come to that point, let me know, I can dig out the
odocumentation for you.

Thanks, Chris. I now have managed to get in but it took rather longer than
usual to acquire my position. Due to a problem recently with my PK, I had
to pair from scratch after re-installing software, so that maybe accounts
for the delay. I just didn't expect to wait so long.
