Hi!
In the Oregon text strings can be easily changed since they are defined
in xml-files in a directory inside the flash file system.
I recycled now e.g. truckstop (0x2f16) to amenity=taxi.
#amenity=fuel & fuel:HGV_diesel=yes [ 0x2f16 resolution 19 ] must be
commented out in the point file,
amen
And there are many other things that can be easily recycled.
Have you ever been lost in an unknown city and asked yourself: Where is the
next hot spring?
Garmin thinks that finding hot springs is essential, so they gave them a menu
item.

P.S: Etrex Users can do the same, but they have no

Yes, I know. I have now three different types of fuel services:
chemists, fuel and taxi stands. :-)))

OK, you are right, but the problem is, that Garmin just offers a few
menu items and everyone can choose what he thinks that is useful for
him. So everyone must recycle these items that are not useful for him or
her.
The truckstop item is goo

No, I wouldn't dare to mount a Nokia phone on the bicycle handlebar and ride
in the rain. With the Edge 705

No, they created a POI for "Garmin dealer". The pizza delivery guy would use
that. :-)

Oh, to draw tiny icons is far more complicated than to draw larger ones.
16x16 pixel icons are e.g. very difficult to draw, if you want to make
them placative and meaningful.

Could anybody help me?
One column at 0x00 is now on a wrong place (0x70 and further) but I cannot find
an error.
There seems to be a "|" missing, but I do not know, where.
