I've read a week or so ago that the mapshare servers will be down for a week or so. Are they online again ? Anyone downloaded any mapshare
today/yesterday etc. ? Thanks. |

OK, thanks. I've done that, although if custom POI's means ones that I have added then I haven't (knowingly) added any apart from the PGPSW speed cameras.
