    Default tomtom sd cards

    It seems the tomtom with a sd card reader will not see anything over 2gb.
    Will a "micro" sd card 2gb work? as the normal sized ones seem to be hard to come by now.

    I've only ever used 2GB cards, but it doesn't surprise me that's the limit.

    Yes, I've used a micro SD card in an adaptor and it works fine.

    Ok thanks for that. I havn't actually tried it in the TomTom, just my external card reader attached to the computer and after further googling I think it is the card reader that won't see it, so maybe the tomtom will, yet to try.

    Have downloaded the latest 890 map for NZ but no meta txt available as yet.
    This is the link I used:

    This is one of three available so at this stage I think this the one for my TomTom one
