Garmin V9 (2008 Map) for Nuvi - No Staples!!!

 

Much to my surprise, (and Garmin's), it appears that the latest map for the Nuvi series does not have very many "Staples" stores in their POI. With this being a new map, we wont see a fix for at least another year. Confirmed with Garmin tech support, this built in POI will not be in their upcoming 700 series.

If any bigwigs at Staples are listening, can you put together a store directory POI for the U.S. for us? Its hard to believe that one of Garmin's resellers (Staples) is not properly represented in the latest maps, when they have been in the past.

Cannot find a single store in San Diego. Garmin cant find any in Kansas either.

Someone dropped the ball on this one.

try "Business depot"

Try typing in "business depot" instead of staples. I found that on my V8 that "Staples" wasn't always much help

Staples - Business Depot - no difference

business depot finds nothing either. I could walk into a staples store that has last years map (V8) and it would find them all. V9 cant find a single one.

This might be a good time for you to get your feet wet and contribute a POI file to this site for the Staples Stores. You could start with your area and work from there. It's challenging, but once you get the hang of it, it can be lots of fun...
