Copilot Central and Android

    Hi, just wondering if someone using Copilot Central with Android can answer this.

    I've downloaded and transferred UK and Ireland maps to my Desire via Copilot central.

    But is there any way to get a hold of the actual map file itself.

    The maps are working fine on my device of course but there's no explicit sign of a map file on the SD card (that i can make a copy of) or on any folder on my PC.
    I just want to be able to keep a backup of the map file itself (to keep with the Copilot apk file that i have) so i'll always have it and be able to reinstall manually any time i want.

    Anyone know if a copy of the map is stored on a folder on the PC or how to get a copy of it off the SD card.

    Any help with this much appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Think map is made up of multiple files I'm co pilot folder on SD card.
    Can't you just re download it via co pilot if anything happens it?

    I've looked in that Copilot folder on the microsd card (using a file explorer app) and they are all small files in it- nothing to suggest there's a 200mb map there.

    Because it's a ~200mb file, it takes over an hour to download it.
    I'd just like to think i have something tangible to hold on to having downloaded it once.
    It'd be nice to have more control of the process.

    With Windows Mobile, say, you could always keep a backup of the map file- it seemed you had more control over the entire process.
