I have just started out in the wonderful world of Sat Nav. I purchased a Mio 168 and TomTom5, which I must say is fantastic The days of navigating all over the UK by trying to read a map and drive are gone.

Just a couple of questions if anybody knows the answers.

1. Do you have to have new maps every year or are there updates?
2. Are the POI's updated regularly or can I edit them?

Thanks

Maps are updated yearly, at the moment. Usually Springtime.

Most POI's are updated sometime. If you mean the camera POI this is done monthly, .... and yes you can edit TT POI.

If you use POIWarner you pay about €12 for an annual subscription and can get daily or more frequent updates that are not limited to cameras. Find your favourite garage or petrol station even.
