I used my laptop portable the other day for a moving map display. I used the 
Tiger shapefiles which are available from esri.com (under data link). You 
will need to have shapelib support in order to use them. If you are using 
Tiger files from another source, the FIPS code for California is 06 and the 
street data layer is lkA.
