Driving along with POI notifications enabled, no poi's appear on the map, the occasional warning is given. When stopped. [at traffic lights for instance] all selected POI's appear on map. they disappear when I resume driving. I was wondering if this is correct as there seems to be no mention of this in the hidden manual on the CD?

Ahm... what you experience is simply poor performance. The icons take a while to draw, but in the meantime the map has already moved on, so the icons need to be redrawn but take a while... etc.

Make sure no other programs are running in the background.

Ta Lutz, I will eventually get this cp5 sorted I hope, I have just ordered Navigon and am eagerly awaiting its arrival from Germany, there just seems to be too much amisss with cp5 I am very disappointed both with the program and with ALK support IE there is none, they never reply to emails or bother answering the phone.

Hopefully not because you think it's performance is better...

Col,

I have exactly the same behaviour on my Ipaq 5450 (with no other running programmes) and I had assumed that this was a bug which would hopefully get fixed in an update.

If this is a "feature" I would like to know whether a faster SD card (on which I have my maps) would help?

Please can those who don't have this problem post their configurations.

Thanks
Pete

I am told that this is a "feature" of CoPilot. :x

Col,

I guess you're right. I've ordered a fast 1GB SD card anyway as I need the extra space; I'll post whether it makes any difference.

Cheers, Pete
