Bummer about the SD card failure. :( You asked about tiles; I think CloudMade has mobile tiles that are smaller dimensions and fewer colours. Check with them. Have you considered using a native .osm file, then rendering on the device? You may have to change software but get better results? http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Software/Mobile_phones _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list Talk-us@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
