2. Also, how did the POI's get on the map? Is that part of the downloaded map, part of the GPS, or do you have to add POIs in yourself?

3. And how much space do the maps take (like for one city) on your memory stick?

4. Lastly, so does the PSP GPS unit pretty much work everywhere?

Anyway, like I said it looks great (haven't downloaded it till now, but I am tempted from that). Sorry for the dumb questions.

1) You can set speed limit in configuration section. Once you exceed it you get a warning (in this video it was set to 35mph
2) you download them separately from google, yahoo,etc. with the tools provided
3)This depends on the level of detail you desire - a good city can take from 30 to 700Mb
4)yes, unless you live next to some secret base where they jam gps signals ;-)

Thanks for the answers. 30-700MB...yikes. I hope the average is closer to the 30 than the 700...

hey listen, ur mail box is full so im going to ask it here. are there anyother sites where i can downlaod v4 of mapthis. i would download here but it always has currpted links.

I cant wait...
I have been waiting on this feature...

Woah! mapthis is great. Sadly I can't use it..or at least I don't know how XD
I don't have any GPS receiver,I guess this will suck without one,right?

Sorry, but Mapthis! only works on firmwares that run homebrew and emulators.

Umm.... am I the only one that thinks it seems like a video game? I mean, the "Speed Warning" and "Bear Right" and the music... it has the presentation of a cool video game. (though unfortunately the music is not part of the program :))

I wish so badly that I could use this, as it'll make navigating New York City more fun somehow, but I don't have a GPS receiver...

Do the voice prompts only work with the official PSP GPS receiver? Or do they also work with Holux receivers? I might have to remodify my cable with the stereo jack if it works with Holux receivers as well.
