Received the new unit today and am updating it as I type this. Installation to follow. Then I ship the already-erased defective unit back and get my deposit back.
One thing I notice about this replacement unit. The screen is not as sensitive as the old (defectove) one. With the old one, only a light touch would press the buttons, but with this one it requires more pressure although not as much as my truck's Garmin nuvi 1490 which is a much older unit with the older opaque plastic tyoe screen. Otherwise the screen appears to be just as bright as the previous Nav VI.
I am charging it now and will install it on the bike before going to bed. Hopefully there is no more flaky behaviour and the unit - and the screeen - will last for as long as I own BMW motorcycles.
