Thank you, Ima !I may order the Navit kit; however, I seem to be reading conflicting information about whether the license in the Navit kit is perpetual.

Re: How to "crack" wayfinder 7 days trial
Here's the thing. I actually like the GPS on my N810, and to get some of the same features, I'd have to spend some cash. I want a device with a large screen, decent maps, removable batteries, thin...

Re: Navigation License expired
I only use my N810 for Wayfinder/GPS, so my solution was to set the date on my N810 back a couple of years. This works fine for me, but prolly won't work for most.
