IIRC, on the Garmin Edge 705 the lower-case works in 'tooltips' but not 
in the rotated fonts that are used for road names. There, it would only 
display the upper-case letters as is, and show all lower-case letters as 
'?' (it could be '.' too, but I think it was '?').

Would it be useful to implement a lower-case option that upper-cases 
only the road names and keeps everything else in mixed case?
