Thanks Al,
Funny you can't add way points, Santa has factory sat nav and its in the menu list.
Could you use Hy program in Kia ??
As standard you can export your car's address book onto a memory stick to make a back-up of your waypoints.
You can also use that memory stick to recover your address book - or transfer your address book to another KIA car.
The file format is the same as Google Earth - so you can put the memory stick into your computer and see the waypoints on the map. However, even via Google Earth you cannot enter new ones.
The only ways I was able to enter waypoints into the car was manually. Either by :-
* Scrolling the map to your destination (which is not easy), poking a finger on the target and then entering the name and saving it
* Entering the full address of the target and saving it
* Entering a post code then selecting the road from a list of options and saving it
* Entering the coordinates for the target and saving it - which I find by far the easiest and most accurate method to do manually.
All of the methods require me to sit in the car with the engine running and lean over at an angle to work on the screen - which for my old bones is most uncomfortable. Even if I sit in the passenger seat to do it.
It's OK for inputting 3 or 4 addresses - but more addresses leaves me with an aching neck and shoulder.
I can now enter waypoints easily by creating a memory stick file in the comfort of home.
I know it seems nerdish - but I have plenty of time to fill and always on the look-out for ways to make life easier.
