Microsoft buying Nokia Devices/Services
Developing Story...
http://www.engadget.com/2013/09/02/microsoft-will-acquire-no...
Looks like Microsoft getting licensing to use Nokia patents and "mapping know-how"... Nokia owns and operates separately Navteq... one of the major suppliers of map data to Garmin and a host of other GPSr hardware and app suppliers...

The POI essentials
What POI files do you think are essential for almost any traveler?
The only ones I have right now in addition to safety cameras is the rest areas and travel plazas. I feel that anything else (restaurants, gas, etc) are generally pretty well covered in the garmin map.
Anything else you guys think almost EVERYONE should have?

Monthly Bargains/Recommendations (September 2013)
Rather than having multiple threads, like these:
http://www.poi-factory.com/node/39232
http://www.monstercable.com/screenclean/monster_screenclean....
We thought we would merge the monthly GPS Deals/ Bargains and add recommendations.
Please feel free to share any legitimate recommendations for products that might be helpful to our user community.
Remember, sharing is caring!

In danger of losing your windmill?
Maybe you can share with us the last place your GPS took you and if you encountered any problems, or if you use it to seek out special places to go (like Thai Food, ice cream shoppes, etc.).
Anything to keep your windmill alive.

What is Windmill?
Hi all
I have a question. Sense I registered here at POI factory for 2weeks. What is a windmill? After I posted comment I got this message.
Message "
...once you have your windmill, you have free access to The Factory's redlight and speed files.
You've been posting for about two weeks so you should have a windmill soon." Please let me know what this is.
Suggestions Please!
What features are needed by POI factory users?
I am a one man company building a new GPS app for iOS and want to include the ability to import and export both .csv and .gpx files and hopefully with the permission of the administrator, provide a direct link to POI Factory letting the user store their login information on the phone.
