Actually the Google Maps files are .PNG format even though Maemo Mapper
saves them with a .JPG extension.

MM works with street and topo maps from Google, USGS topography from
Terraserver, and other compatible sources. Check the
www.internettablettalk.com forums. You can keep multiple libraries
stored and switch among them.

There's a built-in interface for downloading maps in advance by area
(latitude/longitude range) or route, at user specified zoom levels.
With a mobile data connection, you can also download automatically on
the fly. Way cool... this is a killer app!
