This is an excellent site. Thanks for your great work.
I've got a Garmin Nuvi 360 and have joined pGPS to replace my Cyclops db as it clearly misses things 
My Q's is regarding the download:
1. If I download the Speed Zoned db it appears smaller than the others. Do I also need to download other db's too? I'd like all cameras by type and zone (great idea).
2. When I periodically update will it automatically overwrite the old POI or do I need to delete the old one first and then copy across.
3. Do I need to store the new POI to the SD card or directly into the Garmin memory?
4. Is there any audible warning as cameras are approached?
Thank you very much for your site and help.

Each database is standalone, you only need the one, why do you think the Speed Zoned db is smaller?

Using POILoader it will overwrite.

Your choice entirely

The Garmin has a default alert but you can use our alternative alert packs, links in my signature.
Any more Q's fire away.

Thank you very much Darren.
All working well!
I've downloaded voices and the fantastic RoadTour.
As my SD card is only 128mb I had to push the RoadTour to my device. I still have 300mb free but do you see a problem with this? Should I buy a 2Gb SD and move it over?

Mem Cards are so cheap that I'd say get one anyway.
