The POI's are hit and miss at best, the petrol stations seem okay, but I have passed several on the map that have not been a petrol station for the 6 years I have lived in the area, how out of date can you get.

I actually keep my Tom Tom receiver and iPAQ bracket in the glovebox, if I need a POI I tend to use that, it is more accurate, but does tend to defeat the point.
