I've just downloaded the T-mobile Hot spot POI file using TT Home.
I tried to have a look at it using POI Edit but I get the message "Invalid OV2 file"

It obviously has an OV2 extention??

Anybody know what the difference is and how can you edit it ?

Where did you download the file from? for a file to work with TT Home there should be a couple of files one has the extension of .cab the other should be .toc
If the download is a "normal" POI file i.e. .ov2 and .bmp simply copy the files to the map folder on the memory card - Mike

I just downloaded TT home, thought it only worked on TT6 before.
Once installed had my SD card plugged in, then clicked on Visit online store, selected points of interest. There were some poi's that were free.
T-mobile Hot spots is one. Just clicked on download and it put it on my SD card. OV2 & BMP file. But I can't edit it with POI edit ??

Even more wierd, if you convert the OV2 file using dumpov2.exe it converts the file to an .asc format like it should.
But it's an empty file 8O

; Readable locations in C:\Documents and Settings\.........\T-Mobile_HotSpot_UK.ov2

; Longitude, Latitude, "Name"

I think I need to lie down now
