[gps-talkusers] How to record User POIs with additional information

Hello GPSers

I got a question from one of our users and thought I should share this with the rest of you incase you didn't know this little bit of information.

A user.poi can contain what every you want in it, E.g. name of the POI, the street address / phone number, other important information you don't want to forget.

When entering in your user poi data all you have to do is add a comma after the name you want the poi to be called and then add any additional information you want (ie. street address phone #, etc.) This information after the comma will only show up when you do a chord or ctrl P. In the commercial POI's this data is stored with the poi itself.

Examples of user POI's you record.
StarBucks Coffee, 123 Darnel St.,  523-123-1234, my favorite coffee house.
John's House, Birthday May 8'th

so when you search for nearest POIs you will hear "StarBucks Coffee", or "John's House"

Then if you do a chord / Ctrl P you will hear the entire information.
"StarBucks Coffee, 123 Dannell St.,  523-123-1234, my favorite coffee house."
"John's House, Birthday May 8'th"

Enjoy
