They are already within CitySelect/CityNavigator/MetroGuide in the UK and Europe!
Was your unit pre-loaded with the software or do you have a CD/DVD? |

But many are hopelessly out of date - many have changed hands and many don't exist or are in totally the wrong place. One petrol station near my inlaws is placed down a Cul-de-sac!

Also remember last night, in the built in POIs the petrol station around the corner from me isn't in the i3 and the one on the other side of town is placed in the middle of a housing estate half a mile away according to my i3.
If you e-mail OldBoy with additions / deletions or corrections he updates the files very quickly (usually 24 hours) |
