Oh, you are trying this without storage card? That won't work. You need to get a CF jacket for your iPAQ, and a CF card of at least 128 MB.

Instead of TomTom you can try Mapopolis - it's maps are much smaller, and one or tw will fit into main memory.

It is expensive new.
But you could pick one up for next to nothing as it really is an obsolete item.

I would advise spending money on extra for 3630 if that is what you have to do.

Try getting a newer PPC (with at least a SD slot), which you should have done in the first place instead of getting the 3630, if GPS use was your intention. A more recent 2nd hand budget PPC would not have cost more than 3630 + CF jacket put together.
