I really have a problem with Navigon & Navigating.de.....obviously these 2 companies/developers are in cahoots......why do we have to subscribe to another service provided when we have already paid so much for the original navigation product? Only to find that it's functionality is severely deficient in the POI Warning or Speed Camera scenario. With any other SatNav software speed camera POI's are available without the need for extra software to display them, or more importantly the need for extra subscriptions.
Navigon need a kick up the arse, and should be made to understand that customers need full functionality from purchased of the original product, not with after market ( for use of a better phrase) updates/upgrades

To be fair navigon 6 is advertised as navigation software and does not mention speed camera function.I am a navigon 6 user myself and do however agree with you that navigon would be a better system with integrated speed poi included.

When you say "severely deficient in the POI Warning or Speed Camera scenario." do you mean navigon or poi warner.I have the latest pocketgps speed camera database d/loaded and converted to *.asc files and working fine with poi warner and navigon 6.It is a bit fiddly at first but follow the online guide and all should be ok.

At €12 per year the service from POI Warner is excellent. It relies on its users to keep the databases accurate. It has many free POI and you can check for updates as often as you wish.

You will also get a far more responsive dialogue with them than with Navigon.
