Like the idea of the Go all in one solution, and noticed they've now launched CDs with street level mapping within Europe - if I get a big enough SD car could I put these all on one SD and use it to direct me round my pan-European jolliday?

its 9 CD's for the whole of Europe. so i guess u need a pretty big SD card for that. Im sure u can get Major Road and Cities of Europe which is about 100mb which semed fine when i used it.
