when i search for a point of interest on my d3, for example, best buy, i get a long list of best buys in the 4 states around me...in alphabetical order...

 

is there and way of listing these best buys buy how far they are? or at least limiting the search within a certain amount of miles (like 15)

 

i know i can jsut hit the map icon next to the best buy and it tells me how far to destination, but how do i sort it on the search screen

 

 

thiss is probably one of the most important feature in a gps... please tell me theres a way to fix this

 

 

thanks

Type in the city first, then Best Buy. Will at least narrow it down

once u type the POI in it should be a tab next to it that says sort by distance

i know the z2 has a tab sort by distance, i havent found it on the d3

 

also i live around the suburbs of chicago, so its hard to narrow it down to one city :(

The D3 doesn't sort by distance, only the Z. Try typing chicago and see what it brings up
