All people don't need the whole maps in garmin devices. I't slows down a processing of device and maps sometimes interfere with each other. I think it's better to create your own custom map with MapSource an then transfer it as on .img file alwready unlocked in MapSource with JetMous munge83https://www.blogger.com/profile/09584642921345267980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2545087007255463939.post-39207761138051380602011-08-20T01:21:22.786+08:002011-08-20T01:21:22.786+08:00join the maps with Gmaptool and you can keep one m...join the maps with Gmaptool and you can keep one map gmapsupp.img of 20 countries Maps in one file.
