Thanks for the suggestions. I had actually considered both. I did not want to change the file system as I often attach the phone to a Windows PC. NTFS might work but that seemed like a lot of work to make the N900 being able to use it. And I am aware of sqlite but I wanted to share the maps with other apps like Mappero, at least for the time being. At some point I may decide to ditch all other apps and use modRama exclusively, then I will definitely migrate to sqlite.
