Mobile maps for offline use

[Persian Braveheart]

I want to get a map of Vancouver, B.C. for offline use. I do not have the data plan. I obviously have to download the city's data into the memory of the phone. Anyone know how I can do this?

I have the HTC Touch CDMA version with rom update.

You're looking for something free, I assume?

Preferably, but I'm willing to pay for it. I really just need the map data for 1 city and that's it. This way I can just access it for directions or maps whenever I need.

I hear good things about http://terracrosser.com/
Try it out and post some feedback for us! I'm happy with Google Maps as it is

If not, I also read good things about http://gpsvp.com/

Thanks, I will try out and report back.

terracrosser is retarded. it has some .net fix that you have to install but it doesn't say how. the program won't launch without it. and i can't install this .net on the mobile device as it wont launch the file. i can only install it on my computer which i won't do - why should I? it should only be on the mobile device as the actual program is on the mobile device.

gpsv is even more retarded as it is ridiculously user unfriendly. i even read through the whole FAQ on how download a map and i cant even get the program to show the world map on the mobile or desktop version.

i searched google for a program that will simply have the city map of vancouver and the directions feature but I couldn't find anything.

.net Cf 3.5

If you want to call something to be retarded, then most probably it will be non-updated to latest version WM software

If you install .NET CF 3.5 on your PC then it will be installed on your PDA - this is the way. Don't be afraid to install latest Microsoft updates - sometimes this helps

ok i'll try installing that microsoft update but it looked like it was trying to install it on my computer directly and not on the PDA.
