Sheila,

Both of these are currently possible.

If you are wanting to set a poi as either your destination or virtual
position; you can do the following:
1. stand at the spot you are wanting to mmake a poi, make sure you have a
gps fix
2. on the bt press space with dot 3 and on the qt press control with r; type
in the name for that location, and if you want to add details, just put in a
comma (for example, home, 555 north thornton rd); the information after the
comma will only be presented if you expand the poi by pressing space/control
p
3. press enter to confirm the poi name/details
4. in the future you will be able to find this poi by doing space/control f
and accepting all/user for the category
5. for the search string, type in home if you are using the example above or
whatever you might be looking for
6.  press space/control d to set the poi as your destination or
space/control v to set it as your virtual position.

I hope the above mmade sense and wasn't too way out there. the / denote
either bt/qt commands or choosing either one of two items  as in all/user.

entering cross street
This is also currently possible. When you are presented with the street name
field, type in the street name you want, either one will do. when you are
presented with the next field, address number, press enter and a list of
cross streets will be brought up. You can then define it as your
destination, poi, or virtual

I hope this helps.

Kevin
