Mine too. POI only appeared when browsing, not during navigation
Got mine in UK. It says on the unit "Designed in USA, Made in Taiwan". Which one I belong to?

Discussions regarding this issue has been addressed in other forums, they said this is normal. So, if you got Taiwan's version, you're lucky.

Don't :cry: seethoe.
Join member here Malfreemaps.com, You're very lucky.
Although Garmin don't let us to view POI during navigation, But I think our sifu here will find out some way.
Find out what is the POI type of the map will display when navigating, after that change all of the old type of POI to display type POI.
Finally, all the version of the nuvi will show the POI during navigating, and ONLY on MFM. hehee :thumbsup:
May be has 2 version of MFM. one is non-POI display version for who don't like to POI display during navigation
and another one is POI display version for who like to view POI during navigation.
I wish it will become real in the future. hehee

Bro seethoe, how about you ?
