This might be a bit off the wall, but since the D1 & D2 have a GPS Receiver built in, how hard would it be to display a Lat/Long position on the screen?
The thinking is that, while you might be right side up with the D1, you might, if you are over a load of water/jungle/desert, be a bit surrounded by lostness.
Lacking any power, at least the D1 would then give you a start point to work out, by means of the paper charts you are silly not to carry, where the hell to go to from there?
Just a thought!
