I believe it's simply because there are no maps. In such cases it would be better to simply double-pixel it and not try to download.
Is there any way that a maximum level option could be set per repository,

Wow, I just got an n800 and this program is awesome. However, for long trips its telling me that it'll take up a ton of data to download it beforehand. If I was to tether it to my Treo, would that mean it would eventually end up downloading the same amount?
Also, a little unrelated... I'm shocked at how well OpenStreetMaps has my state (Massachusetts) mapped out compared to the rest of the US, I wonder why that is.

Maemo Mapper 2.0.3 on my N800 (OS version 4.2007.38-2) disappears (i.e crashes) when I try to open a previously saved track file. (See contents of RobbieNR.zip attached)

Gnuite,
I am experiencing issues with the GPS/MM. It seems after initially using MM w/ my GPS, the next time I use it, MM will start tracking for about 5 seconds and then stall. I can restart the GPS tracking and it will repeat the same problem. To resolve the issue, I have to reboot the device and its good to go again.
Thanks for the great update.
Howard

I use my N800 and MM for geocaching. It's a very cool combo, and MM is a great program! However, there is one feature of my regular GPS that I miss in MM. If I try to do a 'as the crow flies' route (straight line) to a waypoint or POI on the GPS, it shows a line to where I'm supposed to be, and gives me the distance in feet to the point I'm aiming for. Is any of this possible in MM? I'd settle for the displayed distance, as that's the important thing.

I'll be honest. When I first got my N800 and downloaded MM i didn't get it either. I thought a blank screen was all it was too (well maybe the map of the entire US of A). So I kinda understand this fellows thinking though I wouldn't have posted it here in the manner he did. It was really by accident that I hit the zoom key and figured out what was going on.
Perhaps there should a be quick "set up" screen or something that kind of points total noobs in a direction to get up and going in the most basic way and have that screen only appear the first time the app is run.

Ok - i figured it out. I'm still having the bluetooth on before mapper issue. The problem didnt start until 2.X. Basically, I have to turn off my bluetooth phone before starting mapper or the gps fix will freeze. I can turn the phone on after I get a fix. I think my receiver is the BT-77?? I'm using the latest mapper 2.3.
