Hi guys have you noticed that in perspective mode on the navigation mode you dont get the street names? I am doing something wrong? I dont see any adjustments for this in I drive.

I've been disappointed with perspective view. Looks cool at first, but it's really not very useful without street names.

Where's the option to activate different POI's?? I've looked through the options & could not see anything (i probably just overlooked it).
Cheers,

Anyone?? I've looked again & can't find anything. Would be really handy to have POI's activated for things such as petrol stations, hospitals etc. also speed cameras (if available)

You need to activate it through the "Information" menu - and then whicher POI you've chosen shows up on the map until you cross out the "I" symbol to the left of the screen

POIs become active when you navigate to a POI.
Its difficult for me to describe in english but I'll try.
You have to enter a new navigation target, select Information - Current Location? and select a POI from the list.
Then you will see the selected type (e.g. restaurants) as POIs on the map.
Hope that was understandable :-)
