Yes,
While switching on hold/press both the joystick and the page button

Notice all personal settings will be lost. (also I would recommend 
upgrading to newest software/firmware version of the Vista but that 
should not matter, however if you force downgrade the firmware you 
effectively perform a master reset too)

Yeah, working alright. Only using them for lines right now (and already 
again approaching no more free lines in Mapsource.... I think I got 
around 30 left only)

BTW, I just discovered that geofrabrik now offers alps as region. Just
