Default Annoying Plus "+" Signs on Nav Screen - Remove Them?

As I travel in already conjested city centers, my TCH Nav unit is totally cluttered with the small plus "+" signs (like the porn pop-ups on the web) making it impossible to see the streets or street names.

For over a thousand dollars, I didn't buy a "Yellow Pages" Nav unit. They don't appear to be POI's that are user selectable (read REMOVABLE). How can these be turned off or even deleted as they are of no use to me or most other TCH owners, I'm sure?

Thank goodness I keep my TomTom in the car. I'm finding I use it more often than the TCH Nav unit. Once I get close to my destination, I "suspend" the TCH Nav and power up my TomTom to get me where I'm going. Betcha Toyota thinks they are avoiding a law suit should I become involved in an accident using my TomTom instead of their Nav -- think again Toyota!!! It's YOUR fault that I have to use another device instead of the installed Nav unit.

I like the larger screen on the TCH Nav, but that's about it. Come on Toyota, catch up with the world of PND's and fix your Nav system and upper-level managements thinking (or lack thereof) and make a so-so Nav system top of the line.

.

Ordered 08 TCH on 9/10/08 and received it on 9/27/08. Desert Sand Mica with Bisque interior. Port installed XM module. No factory leather or sun/moon room. Had a dealer-recommended custom shop install glove-soft leather seats and Arkansas max tint. Added XM antenna to trunk lid as rear deck antenna did not work after installing metal film tint.
