Question about Map download size and space left on internal memory

 

So before I went to install the latest map updates I only had 400mbs or so left on my internal memory, so I went out today to buy a 16gig microSD at Best Buy. It was a good deal at $9.99 but I didn't need it!

I thought the new map update is 2 gigs or so? What am I missing?

my guess

I'm betting that you had the 400mb free and the update removed the older map and installed. When updating I've never had to remove the older version first so it must get done by the installer. You probably show less than the 400mb free now (I'm assuming you updated the north america map).

yes to both questions. I

yes to both questions. I think I knew new maps installed over old ones but with many on here running out of space I figured over time I would need a card. I am not running much in the way of extras on my internal storage so I guess I won't need anything for now.

The card was pretty cheap so may as well hang on to it and use it for my wife's Galaxy Note for pics/movies,etc.
