Add on POI's ??

Just purchsed our first GPS, a Garmin 265WT. As new users we are impresed with the capability and breadth of features. We were wondering about adding additional POI icons, such as Campgrounds and highway Rest Areas.
As new users, we may be impatient but it seems like the 265 has these destinations (or some of them) but they are not easily accessed. The search takes a number of button touches to get to these locations. As for rest areas, they provide both off highway gas stations, restaurants, and hotels as destinations, in addition to the on highway ones.
We would be interested in a Campgrounds only Icon and a Highway Rest area only Icon if these exist.

I'm wondering if downloading from a site like POI Factory has any negative effects, ie, is the Garmin's data storage robust enough to take on additional info, is the POI factory clean of bugs, and do the downloads provode you with a separate Icon....??

Thanks for any info...
