Reading Lat/Long direct off screen in error?
Hi. This is my first post here. Fairly new to POI stuff.
Using a Kenwood system (510) in vehicle.
I brought up the direct satellite display info on screen and then read the coordinates directly from there for a location (speed camera).
It showed on screen: N47 17 294 W122 10 856 when the car was right at the location.
I converted to decimal: 47.2881 / -122.18067

Airplane icons while flying
I just noticed this today, but when you are flying, you see airplane (airports) icons on the map (even when you are zoomed out like 50ft). I wonder if it knows that if you are going 300+ mph, that you are flying and you may be interested in airports?

Custom POIs or Favorites - How to?
I have a c330. I have loaded many of the POIs and they show up in the Custom POI file. I loaded the WiFi Hot spots (Houston & area) and they show up under Favorites. Can I group them as WiFi and place them in the Custom POIs with the others or am I stuck with the long list in Favorites?

Okay, I have a Garmin Nuvi 350 and I am using POI loader latest version. I have saved an icon in 16bit with the 255-0-255 colour setting using MS Paint. Problem is the icon shows the magenta colour when viewed on my Nuvi. Ideas?

Conversion software
Does anyone know of a program, preferably free, that can easily convert a csv file to the an1 format native to DeLorme Street Atlas USA. I can import csv files but there is a very small limit on the number of lines it can contain.

Missing something
I cannot seem to find my recent posts that I have made.
For example, I get on POI Factory, post a post.... come back later and want to find that post...
How does one do that?
I do a search... and get everything but my post.
I go to recent posts... and same thing.
Ok... so I'm confused...
What am I doing wrong or not doing?

Anyone find the NUVI 770 available yet?
A few sites on the web say YES, but I phoned them and its just another case of false advertising by telling us that its in stock when it really isn't. I wonder if by Christmas?

Cannot find your car in a huge parking lot?
This might work:
1 - before disembarking, save your "current location";
2 - on the way back, navigate with the unit on foot to find your car.
Don't know about parking garages, a satellite signal is a must.
It seems the Nuvi 760 automatically marks your position when removed from the windshield mount... no need for step # 1.

Costco now offering Nuvi 650 for $299.99 plus s&h.
Will be offering the Nuvi 680 in about week. Can't wait to see what that price will be.
Covered Bridges POI
Kudos to all who worked on and submitted the Covered Bridge POI file. This was a labor of love. Thanks so much for sharing. Love to travel old roads and covered bridges make it even better.
