Top 50

When you view ANY POI file on a Garmin it only shows the closest 50.

If you want to search in a particular location, you can put your GPS into simulation mode (check the FAQs), set your location somewhere else closer then view the POI file again which will show you another set of the "closest 50"

And remember that you can always search the Custom POIs by typing in the name of what you are looking for.
