Hi Charles,This probably answers my question as my message crossed with Laurent's and yours, but I am presenting two workshops this Friday at Sight Village here in the UK, and hoping to demonstrate version 6. This will be seriously compromised without the POI data, so should I go back to version 5, which would be a real shame, or is there any chance of the files between now and Friday?

Hello Laurent, This wasn't mentioned in the pre-release but I have since posted the fact that the European Commercial POIs have not been completed yet. I am still waiting for the June 2009 release from TeleAtlas. Once I get these files and convert them over I will upload and tell you all where to obtain all the POIs. Thanks. Charles M.

I'm a relatively new Sendero GPS user, having obtained this wonderful software along with my Braillenote PK last year. So please forgive me if I'm missing the obvious when trying to upgrade to version 6. Last week, during the pre-release period when existing users were given the chance to give the new version 6 a go, I downloaded the new installer and UK files. I zapped the old maps off my flash card (thankfully I'd made a backup) and installed the new version over the old one. It all seemed to work ok, except that there were far fewer points of interest available, e.g. train stations that should be there were not and commercial pois around my home address were missing. Not a problem, thought I, and coppied the .pdb and .rmf files from my old installation into the map folder. But to no avail! So, I zapped the new installation, ran the uninstaller and reinstalled version 5.4 with the old map and poi data, which worked, thank goodness. When I downloaded the map and poi data last week, a crc error on one of the files was reported while extracting the archive. I thought this to be a teathing problem and this seemed true, since when I downloaded the data again yesterday, all worked well during the extraction. But before I go ahead and attempt installing version 6 again, please tell me what I'm missing! Do I need to keep my old poi data? If so, is that only the .pdb files, or the .rmf files too? Do these poi data files need to be converted to a new format? I look forward to hearing from you guys!
