Has anyone noticed this "feature"? The other day I didn't need the NAVI running so I was waiting for the "star field" display with the shut down button. When the star field/shut down screen came up my wife reached over and touched the clock display. To our surprise the digital clock popped up into the center of the star field and was displayed in a larger size!

I thought "cool." We wondered if shut down was then pressed if the clock display would remain. It didn't, but seems that it would have made for a nice feature. We played around with the display but couldn't find any other hidden features. But the next time it went to shut down the clock was still in the center with the large display.

Has anyone else noticed this "feature"?

Yes. IIRC, it's called out in the owner's manual. Sure makes the clock easier to see, doesn't it?

Yup. GIANT clock.

I wish there was a way to just have a blank screen (for whatever reason). You can do it at startup, but not (if I remember correctly) after you've activated something like the clock or GPS. Of course, I've just played with Ody Nav so far, and don't even have the manual, so I may have easily missed something.

I did look through the manual (2001) and it didn't address the feature (that I could find). Maybe the 2002 manual mentions it.

Darelldd, you can shut down to a blank screen anytime, even after you have used the system. Go to Setup and on the bar that sets the display brightness select 'off'. You can then shut down.
