Garmin does let you install more than one mapset at a time. You just have to choose them all at once. I have City Navigator, and Parks West. I just select the areas I want from MapSource for each mapset, then upload to phone. You can select which map is the active map from Tools, Manage My Data, Map Sets, Map Source (button in bottom right corner), and checking/unchecking the mapset.

It looks like it will display only one mapset at a time though.

Hopefully that made sense.

Thanks
