Or it might be Yes, Yes. The cameras won't work like on the 1000.

I saw yesterday the Go 5100 now accepts POI's in OV2 format.

However, I've yet to make it work. It all seems to download to My Drive, but I can't seem to get anything to show up in My Places.

There's some sort of Cloud option as well, but I can't get my head round that.

The cameras won't show. POI's have only been accepted to allow you to navigate to them. As much use as a chocolate teapot really!!

As I've said, TT know how to do this because they allowed it for years.

They must have signed some exclusivity deal with their speed camera supplier and therefore third party cameras will not work till that deal expires.

Their loss.

no 3rd party camera databases will work with the latest TT units - a lot of users aren't happy, especially as they have now released a revised 5000/6000 as 5100/6100 which includes lifetime speed camera updates.
