I agree that the card size itself seems to be of little consequence. It's the number of map image files and map tiles that's the limitation as you said [see post #64, my reformatted 64GiB also works fine in nuvis too]. I think Garmin just has to keep a cap on this because if they broadcast that 64GiB cards formatted in FAT32 are usable, ppl will fully load them up and then Garmin will be swamped with queries as to why maps don't work.
An interesting aberration seems to be the new Oregon 600/650t, listed as having a 64GB [really 64GiB] MicroSD SDHC limit. You cannot buy such a card. That's a 64GiB SDXC which can only be bought pre-formatted to exFAT. Do they mean that the new oregons can read exFAT? Or is their referring to 64GB SDHC just a strange way of saying that you must reformat to FAT32.. ? Anyone got a 6x0t?
