Slightly off topic for this site, maybe, but I'm headed to Texas USA later this year.
Does anyone know where I'd be able to source a consolidated set of .ecw (or other Ozi accessible format) maps for Texas please?
Cheers. JB.

If I remember correctly from when we spent the best part of a year travelling in the US and Canada (it was 12 years ago) when we took our GPS navigator from Oz with OziExplorer and turn by turn navigation there were no maps like we have with Natmap.
They do their mapping on a state by state basis as you have found only small maps. They were also very expensive. There also didn't seem to be anything like Hema etc except Garmin and a couple of other companies where you had to download individual maps.
We ended up using a large format touring atlas andthe turn by turn which worked very
well.
