Kind of like filling a flash drive with files to take someplace else, and then deleting them when you get home and don't need them on there anymore. Relieved to see that's not the case!Ībout the last two replies (fishgeek and sussamb): That makes perfect sense to me, moving maps on and off the Nuvi. Whew, I was a little scared there that I had broken the law by downloading that. It's an easier way to get the entire US at once than going to These are legal and compiled from Open Street Map data.
