Default POI's for GPS

This might be a good place to swap any POI's we might have for our GPS. I have:
Low Clearances (saved me a couple of times)
Truck stops (general)
Flying J truck stops
Petro truck stops
Pilot truck stops
Loves truck stops
TA truck stops
Walmarts (good for stocking up the truck and cheap goodies in the US)
Tim Hortons (the essential one)
Rest areas
There are programmes that will convert the files to suit your gps eg; CVS files (garmin) to OV2 files (tomtom) and vice-versa.
I'm no expert by any means but if you need help, i know a little bit.

If you want any of these, or if you have any you think i might like/need then just drop me a line.
