I am new to GPS and I have couple questions.

I am waiting for my BT Holux 236 receiver to arrive(hopefully by thurs), in the mean time, I am playing with TomTom 5 on my x51v. I loaded Illinois, Kentucky, Indiana, TN maps to the SD. Since I live in IL, I selected IL as my map. I have a trip going from IL to TN. If I tried to do Advanced Planning, I selected my home address as depart from, but when I tried to select my destination, it is not on the list since it is in TN and I can only have 1 map selected at a time. How do I do advanced planning then.

Now, if I do "Navigate To...", do I select TN as the Map and then type in the destination address in TN. Then, TomTom will tell me how to get there, even displaying all the roads in IL, Indiana, Kentucky and all the way to TN? I am confused...I must be missing something here.

Thanks
