How many Points of Interest (POIs) do you need? Points of interest (POIs) are, just as the name implies, a geographic point that may be of interest to you. They are typically divided into categories like dining, shopping, lodging, recreation, etc. If you are navigating to a business, you are likely to use a POI; if you are navigating to a residence, you'll probably enter an address instead. These days, most auto GPS receivers come with anywhere from 750,000 to 6 million or more POIs. I find units with 2 million or less POIs to be extremely frustrating to use, since often, the business I am searching for is not in the database. I really like Garmin's approach to this. All of their newer auto units come pre-loaded with City Navigator, which has nearly 6 million POIs. TomTom fudges this a little bit, citing "miliions of POIs" for their products, though my take is that they are closer to the high end of the range than the low end. Magellan and Mio put more POIs on their higher end devices. On the low end Magellan goes down to as few as 750,000 POIs. You can see how these sort out on my Mio and Magellan GPS comparison charts..

Garmin nuvi 250W review The Garmin nuvi 250W is a 4.3" wide-screen version of the Garmin nuvi 250. Depending upon which side of the pond you live on, the nuvi 250W comes with pre-loaded maps of North America or Europe. This is a basic navigation device - no MP3 player, no Bluetooth, no text-to-speech. The one frill is the extra wide touch-screen. Yet even without the bells and whistles, it's Garmin nuvi quality through and through. Like all nuvis, it comes with nearly six million points of interest (POIs). UPDATE: A new model, the nuvi 255W, offers these features and more. If you don't need maps of Alaska, you might want to consider the Garmin nuvi 200W. And if these units don't suit your needs, check out our Garmin nuvi comparison chart for one that does. Compare prices on the Garmin nuvi 250W GPS Magazine has posted the first hands-on Garmin nuvi 250W review. Here's an excerpt from their conclusion: "Despite being billed as an entry-level nuvi, the 250W actually improves upon some critical features, such as the updated map screen, address input interface, new mapping data, and more solid construction."
