Just got my desire yesterday and was hoping the google nav would be a credible alternative to actually buying a new satnav.

I tested it out on a 3 mile journey today [worked great] and according to netcounter it downloaded about 1200kb over the 3G connection. Extrapolate that, and a ten mile journey equates to about 4000kb.

I'm concerned it could eat up my allowance pretty quick on a so-called "unlimited data" Orange panther plan.

Can the maps be downloaded in advance onto SD card? I think the only alternatives are payware, am I right?

Thanks.

;)
