The maps I use on both the phone and the Garmin try and make the sorts 
of small things that I'm interested in fairly obvious (on Garmin maps I 
use the Garmin Office "G" symbol for gates, for example, and the map I 
use on the phone goes up to z20 overzoomed to z21, so it's easy to see 
small details there too, and read the text on a small screen).

I still end up marking that (e.g.) "there is a bus stop here" and 
getting home and finding that it's already mapped, though :)

Cheers,

Andy
