Hi Koji,
Yes that all does make sense, and is something we want to do as well.
Actually we put in the building blocks to allow us to do this but haven't
implemented the feature completely yet.  You will notice that all POIs have
a secondary Lat/Lon, this is where you will be able to adjust the position
to your final location (ie. The door of the POI for example.)  The primary
lat/lon is usually at the street (so that vehicle routing will pick the
correct street instead of a closer side street if they had the lat/lon at
the door of the business in question.)

Thanks

Subject: [gps-talkusers] a poin feature

I have a feature request on the GPS if it doesn't already exist.
When I go somewhere I normally, set the destinnation by using the existing 
POI of the POI database or create my own POI using the address look up. 
When I arrive the destination, it is normally very accurate, but sometimes 
it is somewhat off or not quite where I like it to be.  Then I would delete 
the original POI that I used for the destination, and I create one using GPS

mode.  But then I would have to reenter all the information again: the 
address number, the phone number and so on.  It would be great if I could 
just enter on the original POI and give it a command and it would update the

location to the current position.  Does this make sense?
