Discount Tire in the Nav system?
Call me retarded but I wasted 5 minutes trying to find Discount Tire in the navigation system. I tried all the reasonable categories of POI but all in vain. Where the hell is it? Why don't they give us an option to select "All" at any category level? It could make things so much easier. May be there is a patch of some kind that addresses this basic usability deficiency.
I also struggled for a few minutes trying to find a local zoo. It is not intuitive, which category it is stored under.

I always use my Google maps on my Blackberry and I can pull up anything in under a minute and just plug the address into the nav.

yup the category thing is a pain in the ass. Would it really be a ton slower to search by specifying 1) distance then 2) name or category? While in the vehicle using a nav, what other scenario would there be? It's not supposed to be google. I do web apps for a living and from a usability standpoint... I'd have to question who thought of this scheme?
I'll have to give voice recognition a try - maybe that works better? Does it even work for nav?
