TT3 GB Map v City Maps

I have the GB map installed but was wondering is there any benefits of installing City Maps as well? I have a 256 mb SD Card so I will plenty of space. If so, should I copy my POIs into the City maps directory in addition to the GB?

Cheers

Matt

Why would you want to that?

CM maps are at least 18 months older than ttn - & don't provide voice directions. You would be far better off installing smaller segments of the full gb map if you have the space as the address lookups would probably be quicker.

Best use of the space is the post code app by Neils.

Cheers

I'd agree completely with Ian's answer, adding that, unless it's changed in the latest version, CityMaps uses a different POI format to Navigator (CityMaps is .ovr, Navigator is .ov2).

There's no point in installing CityMaps if you have Navigator for the same area, as Navigator is a superset of CityMaps (which is quite an old product). RoutePlanner Europe is also obsolete - it's replaced by the "Major Roads of Europe" map in Navigator 3.
