Author Convert DirectRoute GPS Waypoint to TomTom Favorites?
Evan Platt

Maybe I'm just not googling it right.. But I'm trying to convert my
Favorites from Mapsend DirectRoute to TomTom.

Any ideas how to easily go about this?

Thanks and happy holidays :)

As Darius already said, GPSBabel is the best first try:
http://www.gpsbabel.org/index.html

If you for any reason fail to get the desired result using GPSBabel, you
could try GeoConv: http://www.kolumbus.fi/eino.uikkane...onvgb/index.htm

If you decide to try GeoConv, please start with reading the brief
description, especially the warnings :

Many thanks.. GPS Babel did the trick - My POI's are at least POI's
now. Is there a way to get them as favorites? Navigating / finding a
POI is a bit of a pain - the eXplorist I had, I could just say GoTo,
POI, then I'd see a list of POI's. On the TomTom, I need to go to POI,
select nearby or in another city, then search by name. Would like to
see a list of all my POI's or get these as favorites.

Thanks again and Happy Holidays!
