Hello SpaceCadet
What format do the files use that you have downloaded from Falk, or do you have a link to the actual web page as I could not find any link to there poi's
I could then take a look to see if it may be possible to use others.

Hi PocketGps
The link provided with the software to download these free travel-related addresses as they call them is http://www.falk.de/navigator/eng/79.htm as you'll see the ones provided are useless unless your heavily into obscure sports, youth hostels or Embassies!
Cheers

Hello SpaceCadet
I have had a look at these files, they are in a format called Map&Guide which I don't know anything about.
The only information I can find is this, but it is in German, so me no understand !

Perhaps someone will read this post and give you some help.
