`device using the update data parcel that is a part of said
`predetermined image, an image wherein said update data parcel
`uniquely forms a discrete portion of said predetermined image.

`
`The method of claim 1, wherein the update data parcel further
`comprises one of an image parcel textual mapping, a map parcel, a
`navigation cue, a text overlay and a topography.
`
`
`
`The method of claim 1, wherein the limited communication
`bandwidth computer device further comprises one of a mobile
`computer system, a cellular computer system, an embedded
`computer system, a handheld computer system, a personal digital
`assistants and an internet-capable digital phone.

`
`
`
`The method of claim 1 wherein said communications channel is a
`packetized communications channel and wherein said update data
`parcel is received from said packetized communications channel
`in one or more data packets.
`
`
`
`The method of claim 6 wherein the data packet contains an update
`image parcel as a compressed data representation of said discrete
`portion of said predetermined image.
`
`
`
`The method of claim 7 wherein said data packet contains said
`update image parcel as a fixed compression ratio representation of
`said discrete portion of said predetermined image.
`
`
`
`The method of claim 7, wherein said update image parcel contains
`pixel data in a fixed size array independent of the pixel resolution
`of said predetermined image.
`
`
`
`The method of claim 1, wherein issuing the request for an update
`data parcel further comprises preparing the request by associating
`a prioritization value to said request,
`
`wherein said prioritization value is based on the resolution of said
`update data parcel relative to that of other data parcels previously
`received by the limited communication bandwidth computer
`device, and
`
`wherein issuing said request is responsive to said prioritization
`value for issuing said request in a predefined prioritization order.
