Is it not possible to remove all the countries you may never visit and have more data on where you live?

Your TomTom mapping data is arguably better than Navteq. Unfortunately Navteq put several thousand pictures of hotels, along with all sorts of other details on their disks. This is the German way - they tell you what they "know" you will want rather than ask the customer. - "You vill ave zis vatever you say".... The useless data that Navteq puts onto the DVD takes over 1.5Gb!
