Hi Robert,

I can confirm the attachment issue. Its a known issue but was
unfortunately discovered after I shipped 1.5. I have a working client
here but I am rebuilding it somewhat further. I am altering the email
viewer so that it shows if there is an attachment to the email at the
bottom when you open the email from the inbox. It is then possible to
save the attachment where ever you want it.

Regarding the gps issue I can add that. The issue in the past was that
if the gps fix was lost then it would happily continue to send old data
without warning. Now it will warn if the gps fix is lost but I have not
done anything to it at startup.
