I've run into this too and, though I haven't tried any experiments yet, I'm wondering if this might be part of the issue... There's a default 90 seconds, or something like that, after you come to a stop before the CS's electronic compass kicks in. It could be that, once you come to a stop and then look for guidance from your compass, you're in an in-between place where the sattelite guided compass has stopped (because you're not moving) and the electronic compass hasn't kicked in yet. Maybe reduce the wait time for the elect. compass, or just try navigating with the long/lat readings -- make sure you've got a good fix from 3 or 4 sattelites.

Thanks for all the great ideas! I have a lot to go on now.

Newbie here. Just got a 60cs and have been reading the posts about cases and about screen protectors. Does anyone know if there is a case available that you leave on as you use the gps? That is, one that has a see-through cover over the screen and also has access to the buttons. Thanks.
