i'm not talking about google, i am talking about openstreetmap in general, and clouldmade raster reformats of openstreetmap vector data which is free to download.

i know mameo mapper supports openstreetmap, but i'm not sure in what format, or how that data is loaded onto the device.

i use the example of nasa worldwind, and their downloadable cache packs as an example of the simplicity i expect maemo mapper to be able to achieve.

is this possible?
