Usage Tips...?

[Sarjoo]

Some scenarios I've struggled with, perhaps u guys have good solutions:

1.

have u encountered a scenario where you know where u wanna go i.e. a shopping centre (which isnt in the POI databases u can download) but u dont know the street name or postcode, but you know it is fairly near by.

OR

You know a street name but the TTG doesnt find that street.

In these sorts of scenarios, how do you guys find where you're going? Is there a good way of getting TTG to help get u there or thereabouts?

I was shocked to see that the 'BullRing' shopping centre in Birmingham isnt in the shopping centre's databases (I've tried both the one that came with TTG and a new one I downloaded.)




2.

Another thing, lets say you're driving and cannot stop but wanna add the place u r driving past as a favourite for quick use later in the day....is there an easy way to QUICKLY store the current GPS position without having to stop driving, or without a million screen presses?

Only one I've run across:

I found that quite confusing for a Brit in the States when looking for East xxx Ave or North xxx Street you have to enter just E and N not the whole word.

For TomTom Go you can do this by tapping on the screen then add favourite, then memorise position, then done.
