What a bumber . I think it is probably true that is why they have price for Europe North and Europe South, I guess.

@fargos: Yes, but the 3 yr turn-to-turn will be only for Europe North, not USA, I am afraid.

So the problem is the software... so does the wayfinder us and wayfinder Europe are two different pieces of software?

They told me the same thing, that it would work in the US. So I got it, and when it arrived I loaded up my N810's map application and entered in the license key. It worked great except one thing...

It's ONLY for Northern Europe. So when I try to use it for turn-by-turn when I'm in the US a new license box pops up requiring a license for the US. So without a US (or Northern America license) it will not do turn-by-turn.

Second, the map software is the same for a N8x0 that was purchased in Europe or the US. The only difference is the actual maps that are stored on your device.

So if you are strictly buying this kit from expansys for the satnav license in hopes to use it anywhere in the US (or Canada, Southern Europe, etc) then you're wasting your $

If you reside in Northern Europe or plan on traveling to Northern Europe then great... you got a cheap license for your NIT for using in Northern Europe.
