Just got a £99.99 i3 - have added the speed camera POI and the Hilton Hotel POI's - however I would like to remove some of the Hilton POI's so the menu is less cluttered but there does not seem to be a delete option

Is there any way to do this?

In future I will edit the POI files so I only load the points I want.

You need to edit the csv file remving the items you don't want and then reload all your POI files (hilton and others)

Am I right in thinking then that if I reload the edited Hilton POI file, I will lose the speed camera database that is on there already?

I shhould therefore keep all the POI files I already have loaded in a folder, just add to these and point the POI loader at this folder every time I want to update POI's so they are all loaded on each time?

Thanks

Answer to both your points above - YES.

When you load the poi's via PoiLoader it removes ALL previous poi's, so if you had 5 different poi's loaded before then thought I will add another, PoiLoader would load the new one but delete the existing 5. You need to put ALL the poi's in one folder then upload them.

Thanks, I've got it sorted now, have edited the 2 poi files so I only load the ones I want. Thanks

I also bought an i3 for my father-in-law and he's been on a trip with it today and is delighted with it.
