Glad you like it I haven't personally noticed any change in the speed of the app. Again, I would need to get feedback from others on their own experiences. Back in message #41 of this thread, you also indicated a slowness problem, but no one else was able to confirm. I will agree that the 'button' presses are 'unreliable', so perhaps use the 'menu' buttons if you can to see if that helps.
Well, yes, the 'default' lat/long is (and always was) stored in the 'ini' file, so you would have to change that to your own personal preference (see README). Otherwise, the package default is near *my* location
