I've got an Alpine DVD- Sat Nav package in my BMW and following on from the post regarding speed camera detectors- is it possible to download speed camera sites onto my in-car system as POI's/Points of Interest?

Just curious, as this would be pretty handy...!

I'd imagine if you could get a list of all the locations in terms of lats and longs then you could upload these. I don't suppose they're freely available, otherwise everyone would do this!

Solutions exist for PDA type devices and software using PoI but not too sure about manufacturer fitted vehicle GPS. Have explored all option in my Volvo GPS but don't see a way of uploading PoI.

Would be very interested if someone knows.

Cheers

Yeah, I'm not sure exactly how you would transfer them-but I'm sure someone mentioned it was possible...

Can't do anything about the ba$tard mobile sites (apart from not speed ), but would be nice to make use of the published information on websites etc.

ho hum.
