tomtom one US+europe on same SD

[afarouk]

I am a tomtom one newbie.

I would like to do the following:
1. Buy TomTom one in Germany (with germany+austria+swiss maps).
2. Copy (before activation) all contents of SD+maps to 4gb SD.
3. Activate maps (germany+...)
4. Buy US maps.
5. Add US maps to same SD.

Question:
Should this be possible ?
Will having a large SD slowdown the tomtom one ?
Should I use two SDs ? (one for US, one for germany)

Thanks in advance for help

Many people seem to be having problems with 4GB SD cards (as they do not work in the same way as 2GB and below).

However, looking at the list on the TomTom website:

I have full western europe maps, and US/Canada maps working just fine on a 2Gb transcend card. (note these are the downloaded USA maps (914Mb-versus the DVD version that is 1.4GB)

Performance doesnt seem to have been impaired as I guess when a map is not selected it is just occupying diskspace.

I have quite a few additional POI's on both sets of maps & still have 105Mb spare.

Thanks for the replies, -most helpful. I have a much better idea now. I will go with a 2gb card.

Thanks again.
