These are based off of Lambertus's work here:

	http://garmin.na1400.info/routable.php

I wrote scripts to joined them myself to lessen the impact of doing a
large join on Lambertus's server.  I've also cut them in large longitude
swaths that should fit conveniently on removable media.

There have been some missing tiles from Lambertus's map (the red
rectangles),  I don't see any at the moment, so you may want to update
if you had issues with the last set.

If you buy a new card (especially SDHC), some are FAT16 from the
factory.  I had to reformat it to let me create a >2GB file.

I got a report that the 2GB version doesn't fit on a 2GB card.  I reduced
the amount of space that each version uses by 5%.  Hopefully that will let
things fit better and allow for more space for stuff like track logs.
