I have a garmin nuvi 680 and I want to download POI's from this website and save to SD Card and be able to access POI from the SD card and not my garmin device. I have downloaded the POI to my card using the Garmin POI loader but it does not give me any options to access from sd card.
maybe this will help:

You need to save them to a folder on your COMPUTER.
Then you need to use POI Loader to LOAD them to the SD card.
When you run POI Loader, you will select this folder on your computer as the SOURCE of the data when POI Loader asks. Then you can select your SD card as the DESTINATION for the POIs when POI Loader asks for that.
Thanks for the info.

This is useful information, I wasn't aware that POI files could be accessed through an SD card! This will save a lot of space on the unit! Thank You!
