Just did a search for updates with Home v2.2 and nothing received here for a v715 W+CE map.

What maps you guys using?

What do you see on Home when it finds them? Does it say that there are POI updates separately to the map updates on the screen you get before you actually download, or only on the screen you get AS you download them?

EDIT: Correction... I just switched back to my old v710 W+CE map and I got some too. (To answer my own question, they appear on the "found updates" screen as a separate entry).

The only files updated though are:
reported safety cameras.bmp
reported safety cameras.ov2
MapSettings.cfg
traffic.inc

no CAxxxx.ov2 files at all so far.

Andy, I have NA 7.10 here. The 5 files with a timestamp of today (including mapshare update) are mapsettings.cfg, PatchFilter.dat, ServerLineIndex.dat, ServerNameIndex.dat & MapServerPatch.dat.

As with ou, I found no CAxxx.ov2 files updated and haven't been since January 23rd.

I deliberately DIDN'T download any Map updates, only the POI updates so I could see what files got changed.

But I forgot to check the root directory and there were some changes there too:
Newsettings.dat
UserPatch.dat
CurrentMap.dat
clmdata
settings.dat

But by the time I realised (thanks to "Bruce" on another forum), I'd downloaded the ordinary mapshare updaes for two maps, so now I don't know if any of those were for the POIs
