I, as Felix has already reported, also have noticed the tooltip anomaly. (This also occurs in Roadtrip for the Mac.)

However, I was also very pleased to note that with this and the other recent changes, I am getting significantly better routing results than ever before (at least with my initial tests). The improvements were particularly noticeable on the Nuvi 255W (I will test tomorrow on an eTrex).

Thanks very much to everyone.

Cheers.
