Currently i am using Pocket Streets 2005 in Australia. However as you may be aware the maps are terrible with huge parts missing even right in the middle of Capital Cities.

What i am trying to do is convert better maps to work with Pocket Streets if thats possible.

Does anyone know if it can be done?

If not does anyone know if a better program for smartphone that has good Australian Maps?

Thanks for your time.

Forget Pocket Streets. Try CoPilot for Smartphone - they have Australia maps too.

Try Power Navigation. I'm just starting to play around with it for riding and walking, it sounds like it might work for converting

Let me know how you get on please ?
