Hi there, I seem to have the same problem. The specific scenario for me is this, the GPS was stored and not used for about a year. I put in the recharger (both AC and car) and I have to wiggle it in order for the system to boot. If I move it, it will turn itself off and it had to wiggle it again to get it to turn on. Once it's on, if I left it in the same position (not move it), it then ask me to touch the cross hair for calibration. I left the unit over night, thinking it may recharge the battery, but it doesn't. As soon as I unplug it goes dead. I wonder if this was the same for you.
Also, where do you get the batterty replaced and for how much?
