You can try mine.;) Click the WWW.
The POI's come in OV2 and CSV Format Files.

Yes.

Unzip the download File. This will give you 4 Files. An OV2 File and a BMP File which you Copy/Paste to your Map Folder. The other Files are a Text File and a CSV File for those who have a requirement for that type of File.

When you click the Download Link you will see a Date at the end. This is the date it was last Updated, or Created. I also List at the top of the Page the last few POI's that are changed/created. Pop back every few months for new ones. Updates are normally done as information on corrections are passed on to me.

| I wonder how long it will be before companies start maintaining this sort of information as a downloadable POI file on their websites. |

The downloads on my Webpage contains csv Files.
For other Files that need conversion, try POIConverter or POIEdit.
