Sharonda,
A 4GB card will be able to hold about half of the entire United States.
I just loaded Arizona, New York, and Michigan along with the GNIS, RMF,
and
Collective User POIs and it came out to about 640MB. So if you want, it
would be possible to load all of these maps onto a 1GB card and you will
have over 300MB free for storage. Let's say if you want to load the audio
tutorial and documentation, then that would add about another 60MB, but
this
will still leave you over 200MB worth of storage.
Kevin

How many maps can a 4GB card hold? ,do you think three? I must have
Arizona.
I'm considering New York, because a friend of mine lives there. And I
have
to have Michigan, cuz that's my former home state.
Thanks.
