Yes, they are still on your NIT somewhere, and no, they aren't auto-erased. They are stored in the .db files.

You can use the "View | Go to" menu to go to any place in the world - if you have downloaded maps for that part of the world before, then Maemo Mapper should show them to you. One thing to remember is that Maemo Mapper needs maps on a per-zoom-level basis, so if you've downloaded maps at zoom level 4, then they will not be visible if you are at a higher zoom level (like 6). Maemo Mapper will show zoom-4 maps at lower zoom levels (like 2), but the maps will appear pixellated.
