|
|
Hi All,
Don't know if this is acceptable but I'd like to get some more poi's, cameras etc for France/Belgium/Germany etc.. I have seen a site called POIHandler, does anyone have any comments on it. I note there is a 12€ annual fee for access to the camera databases, but loads of others for free.
Any comments or other advice (apart from 'Don't eat yellow snow!')
Regards,

Thanks Oldboy!!
I have actually downloaded the camera database from www.alertegps.com which is the same site as www.radarsfixes.com I ran a test route using demonstrator mode and it worked on one of the few cameras in Brittany, I still have the Continental database from this site as well so we will see how things go on my journey from Brittany to Berlin this weekend.
I would still like to know what peoples opinions are towards www.poihandler.com which has cameras for a few countries, Germany/Belgium/Holland etc. However, this is a subscription @ 12€ per year for the cameras. All other stuff appears to be free.

Hi All,
Well I went with POIHandler in the end, they seem to have a lot of stuff for europe as well as speed camera databases, all very easy to use and in english. I looked on a few sites for cameras, most seemed to be asking for a few euros subscription, worth it I suppose. Just need to sort out this active POi thing on SmartST & my iCN 520! But that's another thread in another place.
