Ive registered at www.poihandler.com isit? and also using the POI-Sync with the POI's from GPSPW and some of them dont seem to show up on my TomTom 700 when i copy the .ov2 and .bmp files accross to it.

like the Tesco/Sainsbury's i think were some that didnt show in my Enable/Disable POI's option, they were not there, why is that?

There is a limit of 39 POI categories that TT can handle in V5.420 and 5.440

ow thats abit annoying. Not really much of a bother, there any way of removing that limit?

It has been reported that the limit is being lifted to 100 in Version 6. We'll have to wait and see.

Cool Cool thanks for your help (again) Oldboy, you might aswell live here ;) hehe

You reckon tomtom are gonna make us pay for that update? cos i dunno exactally how they work, i managed to update to isit 5.440? without paying but i dunno, you reckon they will carry on free updates?

It's hard to second guess TT, but the last year the software upgrade was free, but the Map Upgrade was charged for.

Bit like forecasting the weather, you can only go on past experience.;)

I have tom tom 5 on a HP ipaq 1490. I download poi's from gpsworld and poihandler, using poi edit and poi warner. I have successfully downloaded pois but Some of the poi's dont show in tom tom although they are on the storage card. Can you tell me the limit for number of poi's in tom tom 5?
Also how can i delete poi's that came with tom tom?
