In a word .... NO.
TT use common Filenames that indicate their Function, rather than which Map they are associated with. There are just 3 Files that have a different names, and are Map specific.

| TomTom would have an application to make the data, but it won't be available to the public - forget the idea and stick with the two map folders, switching between the installed maps as and where required - you could try talking to TomTom about a "Super Map" but I doubt they would listen to be honest - Mike |

Hi mikealder
What’s the new toy that you are getting Wednesday? Give us a clue? Is it something out of the Anne Summers catalogue?

Wait and see, assuming it turns up I might even post a photo with it dressed up as Anne's shop is only around the corner from where the device will be picked up from.
Ok so its another phone, with GPS, with 8GB drive, with 5" screen - need any more clues?? - Mike |

Hi Stargate2006
Yes, you could very well be right. Mikealder could be getting the Apple i-Phone - 8GB. Good God, there will be no stopping the man.
