yup - I have the Garmin topo segments for my area loaded on my Nuvi 260 &
255 -
but I never use it.... just did it to see what it looked like.

The GPS can handle 2 map images - the main + a single additional map image -
it has it's main map in one image file,
and ALL others must be totally merged
into a single file called the "supplemental" image file.

Mine can take three, the main, plus one supplement in main memory and
one on the SD card.
