AeroPod, PowerPod and Newton

My iBike reset itself during my ride yesterday.

Not sure what caused it, must have been some combination of buttons I was pressing during the ride, but it was alarming.

A friend of mine had this just happen this last week during the Battenkill race.

Anyone else see this or know what caused it?

FWIW - My unit is a very early Newton, my friend's is brand new this season.

It's frustrating when this happens, but as difficult as it is to do, it is possible.

Pressing the left, down, right, and bottom buttons simultaneously causes a hard reset.

If you're "fat fingered" in a ride, a hard reset can happen, even if you're trying to push just a single button.

This is something we will address in a future hardware improvement, but in the mean time, be careful with your finger placement!

Hmmm, I'll make note of that. Never had it before, but I suppose it is possible.

When's the next hardware due?

I have fat finger reset my Newton numerous times especially when wearing winter gloves. Very frustrating. I've learned to set it to the screen I want at the start and not touch it especially during a race.

While racing it's a good idea to not mess with ANY kind of electronic equipment!
