Under certain conditions, the 67 did not perform...
You haven't experienced these conditions, so you haven't seen the problem.
When I have time, I will describe my experience, but in another thread.
I will add that I managed to keep the 67 perfectly in one point for 3.5 hours.

Yes, would be good to see this issue.

Been playing around with mine the last few days extensively since the 5.90 update and I can't tell any difference at all tbh since the update. Maybe it reaches 6 feet accuracy indoors slightly quicker but other than that nothing.

Still no option to set an automatic keylock. It was really painful last week during a climb to set it always by yourself. If I forgot to do it, all crazy things happened. For example the track recording stopped by itself, because the button were smashed in my backpack.

Have you not thought about using the back pack tether? It's great I use my 67 on it. Either that or I have it around my neck on the neck lanyard.

That is not an option during a climb and is not an option in cold environment, since you have to keep the battery warm.
