Dylan, thanks for the legal part.
As for the map (and the Newton part of this thread, for that matter ;-)
As the link before showed, yes, it can be done and has been done by
Peter Belanger but nobody mentioned 'Mapper' from
http://www.tow.com/software/newton.shtml
From the site: 'Mapper is an application that lets Newton users view
and scroll large images and maps on their Newton. Mapper is free.'
