If I recall correctly, the "--road-name-pois" option is necessary for
the address search. I do not have a Nüvi, but this works (more or
less) on an eTrex. I believe I must always enter an arbitrary house
number (such as "1") for the search to work properly.

(By the way, I think that the "--net" option is redundant if you use
it with "--route".)

Hope this helps.
