Hi James, I'll fill in my responses in your message. Boy! These builds come along fast. I haven't had time to test 59 yet and 60 is here already!
Is there supposed to be a firmware update along with 60? It was mentioned in the email Adam forwarded, but there was no link.

I'll try it again. Right now I have 59 installed so I'll use it. I will also time it to see how long it takes to happen. It may be longer than I thought. > > Could you tell me what action you do to "go home?" Do you mean pressing > the Home View or F3 (single green dot in solid green circle) key above > the 4 key? Or Alt/Tab? Or Ctrl/Q? First I clicked on the stop sign icon. That took me to the Journal. I tried the F3 key to go home. It didn't work. From the Journal I was able to get back to TamTam and to the other Activities in the Journal, but when they were closed I ended up back in the Journal.
