This^ may have more to do with whether "English UK" or "English US" was selected as the language at start up.

and BTW the 2.5 hours I quoted earlier was for downloading to the PC from their web site. Turns out the web sites maps were still 2006 versions. After my last post I initiated a download of "USA East 2008" directly to my device @ 9 PM. It's now 6 AM the next day and the download is less than half complete.

Has anyone successfully downloaded the USA West 2008 image? I tried two times yesterday (and last night). Both ended in 'download failure'. What was strange was that both downloads seem to fail in the middle of the download. I had ~380MB out of 726MB of data written to my internal storage card both times. Just want to see if I am missing something (like a timeout event)???

Also, it is PAINFULLY slow!!!! First attempt took me close to 4 hours to get to the 50% mark!!!

Can someone make a bridge with there computer to the tablet? Internet--(network)-->Computer--(wifi)-->Tablet
and run a packet sniffer on the computer to see where the maps are being downloaded from?

Just a guess, may not have ground. They need 2X the size of space for the download to work. So, for a 786 mb map, you need at least 1.5 G for the dl to be successful. just from experience from dl 2 yrs ago.....

I just did download/update USA-East yesterday successfully. I had to delete both east and west maps before to free enough space... (I also have Scandinavia maps installed.)

Now I need to figure out how to download the west maps... Likely I need to copy the east maps temporarily to PC or external memory card...

EDIT: Did download the West maps. I had to move the Scandinavia maps to external memory card to free enough space. After doing that no problems at all.

Yep, that was what I was thinking as well. I deleted all map data and started a new download. This time I was able to get the USA-West 2008 image (after 3+ hours). HOWEVER, after it extracted the map data and installed the map Wayfinder no longer worked. When I opened the app it would dispaly the green-heart splash screen and then it would just exit. No error message or anything!!!

So...I maually deleted all map data again, re-flashed diablo (probably not necessary), and started a new download. I won't know for another 4 hours if this worked or not?

Anyone else had similar problems???
