Short version:
I'm after a way of using mapsource metroguide v6 maps on 3 GPSs. Garmin only allow 2 to be unlocked. Can anyone help?
Long version:
2001, I bought a Garmin Emap and Mapsource City European somethingy wotsit (lost the CD a long time ago, can't remember what it was called).
2005, bought a Garmin Quest which comes with City Select Europe 6, used
Garmin's online unlock thing to unlock the maps for the emap (Oh god do I wish I hadn't). Since then, never used the emap.
2007, bought a GPSMap 60c which comes with no maps. Tried to unlock the maps, get told I can't. Garmin only allow 2 GPSs per licensed copy of Mapsource. Technically I have 2 copies, one I bought with the emap, one came free with the quest. Likesay, emap old version has been lost for a long time. Garmin want 175 dollars to enable the maps for my GPSMap. They don't let you upgrade your GPSs, you have to buy a new unlock code.
Now, I know I am legally entitled to use mapsource maps on all three of my GPSs, I just don't have the paperwork to prove it. In fact, I don't want to use the Emap anymore, I bought the GPSMap to replace it.
Is there a crack or an unlock code generator I can use to unlock the maps for the GPSMap? 175 dollars is way too steep.
Cheers,
Gavin.
PS: Garmin have had about 800 quid of my money over the years and I'm about
to buy the Topo maps, another 150 quid. Don't say I'm 'doing Garmin out of their money'.
