When I click on the PocketMechanic icon, the unit resets and I get the "oh crap" feeling cause I start seeing screens that I haven't seen since I first set up my PPC .... so everything is lost ... not a big deal, just a big piss off. So just a warning out there for you guys that may be using PocketMechanic.

Anyone have this kind of thing happen to them before?
What version where you running and is it in trial mode, or is it registered? As far as I can tell the only reports of this happening are with a cracked version.

And just to put my money where my mouth is. I tried doing a benchmark on my Hp5555 on an SD card, and about 10% into it I turned my iPAQ off. Waited about a minute and turn it back on. In my case the benchmark completed.
