I have a speed alert sound on the unit. Do I need to reset the entire unit to delete the function? A Garmin Aera

I wonder when this is going to apply to GPS use too!

Can't say I'm sorry but I am surprised, I really didn't think the FCC would stop them.

This week we're recognizing Twix!

Twix is active in our member forums and has been helping us keep up with some of the Chicago area Red Light Cameras.
To the best of my knowledge she has yet to be recognised for her contributions to this site.

So thank you Twix, I hope you enjoy your first COW award!

There was an article in "Roundel" in October 2011 that pointed out that:

It looks like the demise of stand-alone GPSs is a little premature. AT&T, T-Moble as well as others are starting to take action to reduce their network data loads.

So don't throw away your old GPS just yet, it might end up being the only usable navigation device you have left.

This is the place to talk about things that are not gps related.

Have fun...

As most of us are moving away from our desktop/laptop and using more and more smartphones/tablets, I'm wondering, if poi factory has anything in the works to create such an app?

Thank you,

This is great site for information on how to use and load Custom POI. I was reading a lot of post and they were a great help in loading my Custom POI. Comments on using manual setting was a great help. All the people on this sight are helpful and interested in helping solve your problem. Thanks for all your help.

Just seen the app for OnLive out for I pad and coming for Android. Get the Windows 7 experience for your tablet. http://gigaom.com/apple/hands-on-with-onlive-desktop-windows...

Congress passes bill giving the FAA $11 billion to get off radar, onto GPS

A new speed camera was activated today in Prince George's County, MD. It was announced on local TV news.

The location is near the Benjamin Tasker Elementary School at the intersection of Kenhill Drive & Fair Lane.

MD is making quite an income in this way. Their list of speed cameras grow by the week.

Hope this location will find it's way into the Speed Camera database.

This week we're recognizing bwarden for his ongoing maintenance of the TriMet files. For years, he's maintained several files with transit details covering the Portland metropolitian area. His outstanding work on these files has even earned POI Factory a mention on the official TriMet web site.

Thanks for the great work!!

Will be heading through Houston in the next few weeks, looking at staying west side of town. What is a good area for an over night stay.

For some reason when I save my poi's into my computer and then install into my Nuvi 1490 they double up . I have 2 installs of my files??

Do we really need GPS?
