City Select: Points of Interest Outdated

I am using City Select on an IQue-3600. The FOOD COURT directory seems to be
at least four years out of date. When out with real estate clients, or on a
trip with my spouse, I often get asked to find a seafood restaurant,
McDonalds, etc. The results are very poor. Facilities four (or more) years
old don't appear, or I get routed to what USED TO BE a seafood restaurant,
and now it is something else.

Has anyone else noticed this? The map updates that I purchase are excellent.
Is City Select not revising its original POI database?

Yes. the poor POI data (both outdated and selection of POIs) has been
discussed at length.
