Try dl some small maps 1st, to test your set up, say, Singapore 18 Mb, once working, then just leave it overnight to dl the big map, like USA East and USA West etc. It takes some time, but it can be done. I can USA East/West and Canada, and it works slightly different from maemo mapper, in particular, it shows the nearest wifi station, http://www.internettablettalk.com/fo...ad.php?t=12634.
