This wasn't addressed to me but tangogps is my favorite application on the Neo so I would like to say how easy it is to use. To have the maps on the SD card, simply make a directory somewhere on your card. I have my /home/root on the SD card so I add a Maps directory (~Maps). Then, simply bring up the tangogps (assuming you installed the package which is very easy) and tap the last tab at the bottom ('config'). The second input box is for 'Cache Dir'. Enter your directory! In my case I entered ~Maps/OSM.

Then, I tap on the map, zoom in, and select 'map download' to preload maps for where I plan on going. I don't have gprs enabled so I do this while it is still connected to my usb.

Hi Torfinn,

Could you provide an overview of how you reference (access) the tango map repos on your SD card?

This is a major cost saving solution, the alternative is to download tiles over the air interface.

It would be greatly appreciated.

Doug

Hi,
I just wanted to tell you one of the reasons why I like the Neo. I
just came back from a little walk with my Neo (trying out tangoGPS and
getting  fresh air for a couple of hours), and plugged in the usb
cable.
And mt ssh session to the Neo is still working. I really like that.
