Someone correct me if I'm wrong (I have a 60CSx, not Oregon), but you'll only be able to use Garmin compatible maps on the Oregon. You have to use Mapsource to upload maps to your Oregon - can't just copy them.

The maps from talkytoaster do come as a .img file which is just copied to the card, but must be inside the Garmin folder. Create a folder if needed and carefully follow the instructions at http://sites.google.com/site/talkytoasteru...ree-uk-maps-faq
