Thanks for the poi links. I've downloaded quite a few since reading this and they will be very helpful in our travels.

Stiles, congratulations on the new unit. You mentioned larger screen and louder voice. What did you have before? I just got a new one last month also is why I'm wondering. The voice is not as loud as my old streetpilot 2720 but is plenty loud enough when set at 90%. I liked that old 2720 a lot but the newer ones have some features that finally caused me to scrape the mold off the wallet.. like wanting lane assist after towing straight through (well, that's not exactly straight) Houston and its road construction in a driving rain with heavy traffic and never being in the right lane for my next required maneuver. Lane assist will really be nice. I like the speed limits on the screen, also. And the traffic info, although I hope I never need that.
