Hi all, if I could contribute to this discussion, I would like to say, that I'm really (REALLY) happy with this detailed maps which are available now - sice almost every (even very old) PDA/PNA/Android Phone has a big SD card I don't even care, if the map file has 5 MB or 50 MB or even 500 MB. I'm happy that I can utilize high resolution terrain map and also precise topology map.
So this is just my 2 cents... Roman.
