Those URL don't work in a browser because the "%d" strings are not valid x, y, or zoom values. These values are replaced by Maemo Mapper with the real x, y, and z. If you use, e.g., x=0, y=0, and zoom=16, you get a map of North America.
Did you enable "Auto-Download" (in the Maps menu), or did you use "Download by Area" or "Download along Route" to download some maps? Also, you must be connected to the internet, and your Map Cache must be set to a writeable directory (if you didn't change the Map Cache setting, you should be fine).

Okay, that makes sense, but it still doesn't work for me. 
I didn't have auto-download enabled, so I checked that box, and then typed in my city in the "Route-->Download..." box. The "download" dialogue box comes up and it looks like it works, but the screen is still black. Also, my cache is on the MMC card, and I see files there. Any other suggestions? TIA

BTW, I don't have a GPS unit, and entered 00:00:00:00:00:00 for my MAC address.

Now, use the "Download Along Route" feature and see if maps start appearing.Okay, that makes sense, but it still doesn't work for me.
If you don't see maps appearing, is your MMC full? Is your connection to the internet active (try playing internet radio while you download the maps to make sure that your internet is working)?

I tried what you said to do, but the screen is still black. I have a browser window open, so I know my network connection is working. The mameo-mapper cache directory has a lot of directories that don't have anything in them. Is that correct? The MMC card has 270MB of free space.

Since the latter is not the case, the URL must be invalid. If it isn't, then I am at a loss as to what the source of the problem is.

hmm...I copied the url again, and it still doesn't work. I noticed that there are .jpg files in the maemo-mapper directories. What are these files for?
http://mt.google.com/mt?n=404&v=w2.11&x=%d&y=%d&zoom=%d
http://mt.google.com/mt?n=404&v=ap.6&x=%d&y=%d&zoom=%d
When you enter them into a browser, I get a "Not Found" error.
What am I doing wrong? TIA.
