Since I have car holder for N770 I will use it with n770 most of the time but I'd like to test it with N800 too and maybe use it with N800 when not in car.

So will registration/activation tie it to the first device? Is the license easily transferable between multiple devices?
As I understand it, with a single license key, you can download and use software for one or the either of 770 or 800 and switch back and forth as you wish. Although you should know that the 770 is a wee bit underpowered at times. The license key will not work for Symbian software, and is specific to region. (You cannot use Europe license key with US maps and vice versa).
