Is there a way to upload POI's to Mapsource? Either from a PC file (.csv) or from a Garmin GPS (currently using a Zumo 550)?

GPX
MapSource will read GPX files. You can convert .csv files to GPX using something like GPS Babel or PoiEdit.
Unless you're starting with a very simple file, results after the conversion may be disappointing. CSV files often combine several pieces of data into a single field, and the conversion programs often have troubles extracting it.
