I'm successful in converting MP3's to WAV's, and uploaded our favorite POI's in the new 2689...
In 660 I could could search for them and display them, select them, and have them become a destination.....
Can I do this on the 2689??? I can't seem to find them in the menus...
Second question... They didn't ask me for feet to prompt, as on 660 (Manual mode) I'll delete them and try again, maybe I wasn't in manual mode.... I use different feet for different POI's...
Learning curve begins!!!

it is
under categories by default, I moved mine to the front page for easier access.
Got the manual portion of
Got the manual portion of POILOADER going...
I use 12000' for restareas and CrackerBarrelTourGuide, and 800' for the Home Greeting: "There's No Place Like Home"
and 2000' for everything else...
I've heard Home so I know it's working and MP3-WAV conversion was OK...
Now if I can find them... in the 2689 menus so I could call them up if I wanted to....

Probably under "Categories"
Click Where To > Categories. Scroll down until you find Custom POI's. It is not as strait forward as it was on the older nuvi's. On some models, you can make a shortcut for it so it will appear on the Where To menu. If your menu has an "Add Shortcut" selection, try it.
