If you touch the entry you want, it should display any location information it has on that entry EXCEPT the Lat/Long. The lat/long stored in the unit for a POI is so highly classified even the author can't extract it until they get to the location and press the vehicle icon.
Most of the time the Lat/Long is not needed and certainly is of no use while driving unless you happen to know the lat/long of your current position.

It depends on what the
It depends on what the author of the various POI files put in the poi listing.
Some put alot of info such as phone, address, etc ... other's just list the coordinates.
Easy way to check out a far away place ... "set loc"ation for a various poi, then view map, and touch the vehicle icon for information.
Garmin 205, 260W, 1450LMT, 2460LMT, HEREwego for iPhone ... all still mapping strong.
I believe
I believe that "Set Loc" is only available in simulation mode. Just switch to that mode then follow the above directions.
