Look for Current.GPX in your backup files (try the GPX folder) and copy it to the new unit as temp.gpx. Reboot the new unit then delete temp.gpx.

Extras

I use EPE to read in my Favorites, then save to a POI file that I include in my Custom POI's. That way I can use Extra's to see all my POI's that are near me.
