OMG!
I don't know if I want to go ahead with this purchase, first the AF knob had a dead spot in it (which Flex is taking care of with a different radio) but now the Select A Version screen is completely locked up, I cannot get into the radio or enter my name in the log in fields.
This is a lot of money for something I spent $3300 on a week ago.
Is it always going to be this way with  Flex??

    Great, I'm glad the second reset got it back on it's feet.  Hopefully you can enjoy the radio for many years.  It would be nice to know why the first reset didn't work.
