1.1's visuals include a time/date visual (and very nice it is too). Not planning to display it during standby, as the display being on also powers the amps. It may get added to track info too. The battery is a supercap, which keeps the clock running for 7 days+ when not plugged in to anything. If it's in the car (even in total power off mode, ie no standby light) the supercap gets charged.
