Hi,
It would be great to be able to add more information to the pois.
At the moment the information that can be seen is streetname, number, postal codes and placenames
in the properties of some of the pois (the gps can't show this properties box on all kinds of pois unfortunately)

I have been experimenting to 'fool' my Garmin to use addr:streetname etc for some other information and this trick worked.

tourism=information 
    {
		add addr:street='${opening_hours}';
                add addr:postcode='${website}' ; 
		add addr:city='${note}' ; 
    } [0x.... resolution ..]

Cheers,
Minko
