Welcome / open talk

I have read in several posts that ppl may have trouble with their mounts sticking to the windshield. Here is a solution that works great!!!

Cover the suction cup with a VERY thin coating of vaseline. It works wonders!

Just want to say Hi! I hope my 1st POI Factory up-load (Wawa Stores) is useful to many of you.

I currently have a TomTom One NE and I am very impressed and pleased with its functionality!

Another great week, and I would like to thank everyone for all of the nice posts.

This week we are recognizing Asianfire and Yousey as contributors of the week, and I am also giving an honorable mention to Retiredtechnician.

Asianfire hasn't been here long but he has already made his mark. He is good at getting everyone chatting and having fun.

Hello forum,

As I mentioned earlier, the new server became available yesterday. I've been busy with setups and modifying scripts to work in the new environment.

I still have some testing to finish, and if everything goes well, I expect to move POI Factory late Tuesday night / early Wednesday morning.

I know that this sounds sort of old fashioned, but I still occasionally need to find a public pay telephone. Yes, I have a wireless telephone that is with me all day long while I am out in the car, but every so often I find that I need to locate a public pay telephone.

I am back home now and will be trying to catch up today and tomorrow. Not very happy with the internet service that my parents use. I was not able to get online until I got home a half hour ago.

Do you guys realize how much talking you do in a day and a half? I have 3 pages of unread posts to get through.

It is nice to be home.

I work with my POIs at home and at work (don't tell anyone). I use to put them on my flash drive and transport them back and forth. However, I often forgot which ones were the most recent, which folder had the 'new' POIs in it. Sometimes, I would overwrite and loose the ones that I downloaded.

This is just something that having a shiny, new GPS brought to mind.

Does anyone hae a list of historic or points of interest along the Natchez Trace Parkway. I'm planning a trip down it this summer and would love to creat a file with proximity alerts for all of the landmarks.

I have a list of landmarks with mile markers but not the GPS coordinates.

Any ideas?

I just got my GPS unit , KNA-G510 by Kenwood. have the DDX-6019 to play with it.
New in the forum, and really looking to contribute on San diego, CA, and BAJA California,Mexico POI's.

Hi everyone new user here.
I'm going to try and add my POI of all US lighthouses(1092 ?)
It may take a day or two but....
Garmin e-trex and Map60CSX, POI loader

Someone made a suggestion about 3 weeks ago for a good POI. I am currently creating a "Offbeat Tourist Attractions" POI.

Since this is my 1st attemt in creating one, I would like some feed back from othere users here for the following:

1) Should I create 1 big POI file, Or should i breat it down by states?

2) Would you even be intrested in a POI like this?

I own a Nuvi 350 (hence the title) I have a few questions that i couldnt find as i was navigating the site. first off how do i delete a pre- loaded file such as a wal-mart that hasnt been on a certain street for about 6 years now (there are more). 2nd can i load cvs gpx and whatever other files on my unit? What do they mean? And 3rd anyone having luck with the Fm traffic option?

Ok, so I go and post a topic or reply to one. It automatically takes me back to the thread. Now, to get back to the particular forum that I want I have to click on the "Discussion" tab at the top of the page to get back and start all over. If I simply use the link, then it takes me back, but shows all text of the thread.

Hi, I am new here and just wanted to say hi. I ride a Honda Vtx1300 and I have the Garmin Zumo 550 which I love. Found this site and it looks great.

Hi,
I'm new to this board. I just bought a Mio P550 PDA/GPS. Actually looking for SpeedCam database...

But I ran into this post and just wanted to let you know that Escort has a new radar detector WITH GPS built in!!

The first time I logged onto this page this morning, "My discussions" was there, but now it isn't. I only have the options to "Post new" or "Mark all read"

This happened to me yesterday as well. Any ideas as to why?

All,

Can someomne tell what is the difference between gpx and .csv file.

Can audio be uploaded to alert when a speed zone is coming or red light camera is coming?

Thanks
Suman
