We have put out a firmware update into our system and it is working its way through. I really don't know what the timeframe is, but my guess is approximately a month for it to make it into production.

The specific issue you are bringing up is known and unfortunately will not be fixed in this update. It takes quite a bit of added memory to be able to store the current playlist that you were on. So, it will always go back into alphabetical mode once that current song is done with. Not sure if we'll be able to resolve this issue in a future update or not. Currently the only device that supports remembering what playlist you were playing is an iPod. I know this is not as easy or convenient as a thumb drive, but fortunately the iPod keeps track of all of those settings and so it can remember where you left off and start back up.
Codeman, thanks for answering. And just to clarify on my issue, I haven't been using playlists. I've been using the Search function on the BA system itself. Based on the directory structure on the flash drive I usually use the Folder View. I was wondering if future releases would allow it to remember which mode it was in.

If you are working in the Kilobyte memory range and not Megabtye range I could understand how you would be limited. I wouldn't think remembering last mode/folder would take much memory, but if you are at 630KB out of 640KB I could see the problem.

If it never gets fixed, it won't make me regret getting the car. My last car had a glitchy USB port too. And this car is great. It's just one of those annoying little things you notice over time. Thanks again for taking the time to answer all of our questions.
