Could you tell me please how to use TomTom Home to install the camera database? Thanks.

Download the 'HOME' version of the database and extract the contents of the .zip file to the 'Downloads' directory in your HOME folder structure.
i.e. My Documents\TomTom\HOME\Downloads
Fire up HOME and you will see our Safety Camera POI in the list of items available to upload to your unit.

Top Banana! Thanks for that. It worked a treat.
One more question perhaps you could help me with.
I have just downloaded and installed the latest Western Europe maps. I had to buy a larger SD card (1GB) to take the maps as I only had GB before. I did a clean install and was wondering how I restore my POI's I had previously?
I have a complete backup, several in fact, of my "old" 512MB SD card. I also made a backup using TT Home.

Locate the backup. In the Map folder i.e. Great-Britain (or whatever your map was called) simply locate the name.ov2 and name.bmp files pertaining to your POIs e.g. RealAlePubs.ov2 and RealAlePubs.bmp.
Copy these files to the same map folder on your device.
