How do I load Swiss cameras onto a Nuvi?

I've got a Nuvi 310D with all Europe coverage. I've loaded the UK files, and the EUR files, but can't find any way of loading the Swiss files, as the text on the Garmin POILoader page says "Camera selections EUR does not include UK! SWISS cameras are NOT included in the EUR files!", but then the drop down menu of options does not give me any option to download the Swiss files?

There are no Swiss camera files because the files are illegal to use in Switzerland.

I didn't realise that. Does that mean you are not collecting speed camera locations in Switzerland (I reported 2 in Arbon in the summer, which I found outside the hotel I was staying in)?

If only it were accurate (and I'm an IAM member). Germany has not prohibited speed cam POIs. What has happened is that some Landes have tried to but German Law overrides Landes and so it is far from clear at present, even German manufacturers such as Navigon are not clear on the current legality.
