My eTrex Legend HCx shows the data exactly how I cut them with the 
splitter but the outer tile boundaries of the map are shown a little 
(200 m - 500 m) bigger than the data. The offset is the same for all 
map layers, i.e. OSM and SRTM although the tiles are not the same. Looks 
like a rounding thing to me. Nothing I'd worry about.
