|
|
I have a P550 with Miomap 3.2. When I search for shops in the UK the only ones it comes up with are Partco??? No Tesco/Sansburys etc. I'm not sure if it showed these originally or not, or whether Mio update has changed it. Anyone able to get anything other than Partco shops? It finds plenty of shops in France and Supermarkets with petrol pumps in the UK if I search for petrol, but not in shops?? |

Under Services - Petrol Stations I have a choice from Asda through to BP, including Tesco's. I would have thought Mio 3.2 would have the same. |

Ok, thanks for that. I thought there was something amiss with mine. Strange how it has the petrol stations at the supermarkets, but not the supermarkets! At least it wotrked well in france when I used it for finding shops! (The main reason I got it was for a trip to france, it worked great too!). |

At least we know how to find Supermarkets in the UK.
Have to agree it's brilliant in France. |

Yeah there is loads of stuff for France, it was really good!. I had a look at the POI files and the French one is a lot bigger than the UK's. It's not too bad, but it would be nice to have lot's more restaurants etc. Still I can hope.. |
