MouseSavers GPS files: TomTom issue

[dmunsil]

I just found out that because of an issue with the CMS system on MouseSavers (and my unfamiliarity with its quirks), the TomTom GPS file link was still pointing at the previous version of the file rather than the one I updated a couple months ago. So if you've downloaded the MouseSavers GPS POI file for a TomTom within the last two months, you should redownload it and reload the file onto your TomTom.

Huge apologies for the mix up and many thanks to alert reader Angela, who noticed that the file was missing the new entries.

All the other files are fine; only the TomTom link was wrong.

Thanks for the info. We're not using that MS GPS file any longer because we quit using our Garmin in favor of the Navigon app on our phones, but we always found it so helpful in the past. I still recommend it to everyone.

Thanks! I have heard that there is a way to get POIs into the Navigon app on some phones (probably Android ones, I would guess). I've been trying to find someone who uses Navigon to see if I can make files that would work. If you want to try it, let me know.

We might be willing to be guinea pigs Don, I'll send you a pm.

Does this still work on a Tom-Tom?
