New maps AND Poi's?!?!?

[pkerr]

O.K. so I got the new maps installed (had to do it manually) But what about the new Poi's? Are they imbedded in the map or do they need to be loaded separately?

TomTom WEB site says "More than 410,000 new road miles and 500,000 points of interest"

They're in the maps but are in a different folder.

They're in the maps but are in a different folder.

Since I loaded the maps manually (I told it to load the US maps, it did not do it when the DVD was inserted) do I need to load the Poi's manually. Or is that folder automatically installed when the maps are installed?

It's installed when the map is installed. No need to do it manually.

Thanks for the info... anyway to verify that it "worked" (date, version, etc)

Yep, switch the unit on and click on the lower right corner and it'll show all that info. You should have map version 665.1293.

Gotcha... I've got that part but I'm just concerned about the POI's. When the maps are installed part of the process is also intalling the POI's? Correct?

It's not just installing maps.. but a whole process of updating everything?

You are correct. It will update new POIs.
