Hi, Great site by the way, very useful :D . I have just bought a i3 and a micro SD 512mb as all POI's wouldn't fit on without it. My problem is this, after fitting the card no info seems to go on the card, just the system. I don't own a card reader, is this the only way to do it?. Thanks

First things first Welcome to the forum!

You're quite right, you can't hook the i3 up to your PC and upload all those lovely POI's - they just won't fit on the unit. What you will need to do is get yourself a card reader/writer, pop the card out of the i3 and load your POI's direct to the card, without the i3 plugged in. There is 50Mb+ of space of the supplied 256mb card - plenty for all the the zipped POI's and the safety cameras, too.

The 512mb card you bought could be used to load additional maps should you wish to purchase more, or you could just send it to me!

Hi, Thanks for your reply. Mine didn't come with a card as i have just bought it so i got a 512mb card just in case i needed more space. Thanks for your advice, i will get a card reader and pop them on that way. If i have any problems i will see you soon :D Laughing Out Loud
