Good, free POI software for N810?
 

I really like the POI features in WayFinder (err, hope that's the right name; built in Maps application for N810). I can quickly search for nearby locations and have that search accompanied by GPS. It is fast and detailed, and I seem to have a good database "automagically" there.

For now.

A few issues I have:

• The POI database does not seem to update itself from the initial collection.
• This application is not free software. While that isn't a showstopper, I do prefer free software where possible.
• Wayfinder is nagware, asking me to buy the full version whenever I do so much as click that little arrow on the right side of the screen. Drives me crazy; I don't like the feeling that I am using a demo.

I tried Maemo Mapper, and it does have POI download. However, the only way I have found to do this is manually, selecting a particular category and then manually flipping pages through it and pressing download. Requires a piece of paper and a lot of babysitting. POI lookup in there does not seem very sophisticated, either. In fact, I have not found a search option for POIs, although I may be looking in the wrong place.

Is there an application which serves in some sort of a middle ground? Easy, straight-forward POI searching without an Internet connection, without nagware and with an up-to-date database?
I wouldn't even mind it without maps, GPS feature or directions; just so long as it lists and helps me find points of interest.

Is there such a thing?

Thanks in advance!

Due to the TERRIBLE search features on this board it may be hard to find, but there is a converter here.
And do a web Google on "poi free" and there are several free sites with data sets like all the Walmarts mapped.

I'll be looking for it also. I found the app at work and now with the same search terms it didn't show up.

That software wouldn't load on my W2K system, but I did find http://www.gps-data-team.com/poi which has ton's of POI's. Just download them to your NiT in .gpx form and use them in maemo mapper. I assumed that you don't mind downloading them with an internet connection :) Oh - if you download say all the WalMart stores it will take a long time to load.
