    Escout,

     

    Can you confirm, by looking at the internal memory as a drive from your PC, that the basemap is actually 28 megs as advertised? I have a feeling that it's a typo, but I could be wrong.

     

    The basemap in my 500 shows up as 8.16 megs.

    I just checked my XL and the basemap is 28MB.
