Out of the box, your Samsung i8510 can't download maps from Route66's (Samsung Navigator's) online store... here's how you fix the problem:
1) Connect the phone to your PC and select Mass Storage mode (or use Y-Browser if you're familiar with it)
2) Navigate to the E:\System folder on your PC (where E: is the phone's internal mass storage, NOT a memory card)
3) Create the following folders (each is a sub-folder of the one above):
3.1) Apps
3.2) Route66_V8
3.3) Data
3.4) Maps
4) Check you now have E:\System\Apps\Route66_V8\Data\Maps as a folder path
5) Disconnect the phone from the PC (to give the phone access to it's E: drive again)
6) Go into Route66 > Extras > Maps > Route 66 store and see if it will now let you download maps to your phone :)
