Question Spot for Blackberry - 06-11-2007, 07:43 PM

Has anyone been able to get a map image file to load in Spot for Blackberry on a Pearl? I copy a jpg map image file, with the related jgw file, to the SD card and then select it using "Load GEO file." An hourglass appears and stays for the whole 5 minute demo time. The map never finishes loading. The gentleman from Skylab Mobilesystems suggested using a smaller map file. I have gone down to a 150k file with the same results. Spot is apparently the only currently available that is supposed to use topo map files, which is what I want to use it for.

Could you post the files you are trying to import? I already got that work some months ago but don't have the maps anymore.

Thank you for your reply. Here is the map file I was trying to load, resampled down to 29k. The following text is what is in the associated jgw file. I'm hoping it's not something stupid I am doing. I'm a newbie with gps maps.
