In my latest upgrade, I downloaded a file which TT says "•Create your Custom POI's
Personalise your Sat Nav by creating your own set of Points of Interest, and visualise them on your TomTom device"

Does this mean that I could add PocketGPSWorld speed camera files and get them displaying properly now, specifically proximity warnings?

I have just updated my TomTom 6100 and got the same message.
All we need now is to know how to do it.

With the new 17.1 application released Tuesday, you can now add custom poi files to Nav4 devices by using MyDrive to add them and then sync with the unit.

BUT you must choose a provided icon, not your own bmp AND no proximity warnings can be included.

No change then.

Add POI's to navigate to, but camera functionality is gone.

All my hopes are dashed. Well done TT - still not giving customers what they want.

No, it's worse than that. They did do, but they took it away.

The change is that you CAN now show YOUR custom pois on the map.

Chocolate teapots and hot air blowers.
