Ahhh, I see now. So, if I read right, if one needs driving directions from Point A to Point B, one must have already downloaded this route and saved it on the Nokia 770 (assuming no internet connection once in the car). If not, entering point B's address into Maemo Mapper will not produce driving directions. Correct? So (if not connected to the net once in the car) one cannot just jump into the car and enter a destination and then receive driving directions to the destination. Is that correct?
thanks,
Neil

How about something less ambitious, like aggregating the 256x256 map tiles into (for example) 1024x1024 units for storage and retrieval?

Consider that even with FAT32, 2GB is the largest partition that will accept 512 byte clusters. The minimum becomes 1024 bytes at 4GB, 2048 at 8 GB, and so on. At the 32GB upper bound for SDHC, we're back to 8KB. So higher densities will take away nearly as much as they give, in this case.

jpj:
Excuse my ignorance (so far I don't own a 770/N800 but hope to soon, and my experience with flash memory cards extends only to picture taking) but a question: with a 4 GB SD card, can the user format it such it consists of two equal size partitions (ie 2GB each) and therefore benefit from the more desireable 512 byte cluster granularity ?

Would it be possible (in the next version of maemo mapper) to have an option to manually configure the GPX server?
I mean, a place in the config, where we set the GPX server url.
(similar to the URI)
