the way i did it is to bring up the area you want to copy-then ck the zoom levels you want and download when you have a good wifi connection. it tells you how much will download in case its more than you want

Exactly. You may not want to use the lowest zoom though as it adds the most data to the card. Depends what your needs are for that area

I got it working! I'm a fan of the display, however, I was unable to map a route today. I didn't see an address search/input option. This seems more like Google Maps with GPS overlay.

selecting too much data as you say is probably not a good idea.

Yes, that means you'll need internet access to go to an address - you have to remember that Maemo Mapper is free and thus doesn't have ANY of that expensive Navteq street data, so it can't do routing or address-finding on its own. It works only with bitmap images.

Not that I'm not appreciative of the massive amounts of work that have obviously been put into MaemoMapper. Just expressing feedback as to what I'm looking for.
I'll play some more, but at least I've got the maps thing figured out.

I there any way for Maemo Mapper to always have maps face the direction you are driving (the street always on top of your position) like other navigation systems or is this impossible because of the way the maps are downloaded? Thanks!
