Very cool!! Just made the WinPV and PV software updates. Very easy following the onscreen instructions. Retained all my existing setup and tune files. I like the addition of the Instant MPG and the groups of measures for Trip A and Trip B. Very useful.
I'm using the 4-pack of guages with a white background and dark lettering for daytime and a 4-pack of gauges with a dark background and orange letters for nighttime. Very visible even in bright daylight although the screen is not as bright as my Garmin Zumo.
Right now I have the 4-pack gauges setup with Engine Temp in the upper left of the display, Instant MPG in the upper right, Avg mpg in the lower right and Throttle Position (for now) in the lower left.
I've also come to REALLY like the Delta feature in WinPV for comparing tune files. Very fast and easy for comparing changes between 2 separate tune files.
I also really like the fact that the PV now boots up on the bike to the same screen it was on when it was shutdown. Very nice.
Are there any other significant features in this update that I should take notice of?

They appear to have fixed the (my) problem today. I also notice that the available updates now include an "Old Placeholder" version, which I assume will enable you to revert back to your previous version if something goes wrong - good idea.

I expected him to contribute actively and am glad he is, as he's the expert around here. One day we may have more than one expert if DJ starts to contribute. Right now they're up to their ears in alligators, as we say down here, trying to get everything going with PV and I don't expect direct involvement from them for a while. In the meantime Jamie's da man for all the problems we can't deal with ourselves.

I think they are still having problems. I see the updates but when I select the "Install this first" 1.0.20 64bit patch it asks me to "Please connect your Power Vision to your PC... yada yada.". I can select and install the other updates (Firmware and database) without problems, I just can't select/install the "Install this first" patch.

That is why I was curious about the suggestion to attached the PV to the PC.

Does anyone have a problem with the data going blank while riding? I have updated mine and still have the problem. While using the gauges I go riding and anywhere from 30 seconds to 15 minutes the screen stays on with the gauges but all the data disappears and the datalog stops. I have to stop and unplug the unit to get it to come back.
