Satnav is indeed crap. But when asked for the place, you can type in your postcode instead the city. The bigger problem is the house numbers that are always missing

Post code search is def there, its just not obvious. Where you tap in the area / City you just type the post code (upto 5 characters tho
)

)UK postcode fucntionality does NOT work (bug) with the 06-2 (Professional) DVD.
I'm intrigued that dosprompt says there are no POIs... is that a limitation of Business Nav?

Postcode functionality varies by territory and type of Nav.

Performance on motorway crusing
speed is amazing 80-120kph (7.0secs) nearly as fast as the 530i (6.7secs). This says it all.

Sorry just an old fool , I have now, thanks to the last notes in this forum found how to input Post codes on my 2006-1 DVD, I have had this for a week, as for the POI's, i mean the one's you can put in yourself, like Tesco's Asda ect, ect, you can only see one type at a time, i.e. Speed cams or my own Poi's
