What kind of improvements were you expecting? :-?

Teleportation from current location to next waypoint when you push the 'GO' button?

Hi,

I downloaded the 3.12 beta and noticed that the Oregon does not "track up" for a few minutes when I switched on the unit. This never happened on the v 3.10. It is funny to see the map moving sideways like a crab instead of moving downwards. Quickly reverted back to v 3.10.
