Is there a GPS software program that will have an icon show up on the map for an address that is in my contacts? Also, are there any software programs that have movie theaters listed in the POIs?

Hi,

If you have a group of several contacts that you need to navigate to, you can always create a POI file for them.

If you only have one or two contacts that you want to be able to navigate to, you can add their location to your Favourites. The first option is safer, as sometimes the Favourite locations can be lost if you have a problem with TomTom, but POI's will always be easily re-loadable.

HTH.

Regards,

Bo Peep.

The best way of creating a POI file with your contacts is to go through Microsoft Autoroute on your desktop PC. You can read more about that in this thread.
