The G1000 does the same thing - changes Mode on One Touch. How come this only bothers you now?

The E80 (according to some) finally allows you to memorize this parameter, and hopefully an OS update might allow the G70 to do it too, so there IS hope, but getting all bent out of shape over a feature that works EXACTLY the same as the arranger you already have (and claim to want to go back to) hardly seems fair..........
