Yeah, they do seem to take up more space. I have a couple problems though... When I zoom with any map (street/satellite) into a zoom level of 0 or 1, the download doesn't work. It says something like 49 maps failed to download. What's going on with this?
Another problem semi-related is that it downloads tons of maps for one area view. Why doesn't it just download the maps of my view? I would think this might be better because I used to be able to connect to my t-mobile 5.99 web plan and download maps as I drove. Now, it won't download any and says "xxx maps failed to download" and I'm guessing it's because of the slower connection. Is there a fix for this? TIA
