+SilverSpoonGirl Posted December 16, 2007 Share Posted December 16, 2007 I bought an Explorist 500XL from a vendor, and I purchased DirectRoute v.3 from Magellan. I have now returned the GPS, due to many reasons. Is there any use for this software? It had been installed in the GPS, and the software docs state there is a single use license. I do not plan on buying another Magellan and hate to think I am stuck with a $200 coffee coaster now. Thanks, SilverSpoonGirl Quote Link to comment

They let me switch my DirectRoute when I lost my 500 and bought another one (A successful tech support story, but that's another thread). But they probably won't let it transfer to a new user.

+Barnie's Band of Gold Posted December 16, 2007 Share Posted December 16, 2007 Count yourself lucky that you were able to get rid of the big ticket item. With a username of "SilverSpoonGirl" you probably can afford some expensive coasters! Quote Link to comment

If so, how much would you want for it? Please let me know. Thanks, SangreJoven Quote Link to comment
+SilverSpoonGirl Posted December 22, 2007 Author Share Posted December 22, 2007 Sure if someone can put this v3 coffee coaster to good use then I'd be willing to sell it. Make me an offer Quote Link to comment

+barefootguy Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 I have topo 3d and it lets you switch the serial number, which I had to because the number on the sticker in the battery compartment didn't match the number in the GPS's memory. Also, can't you just use windows explorer to copy a map file you make in directroute to the GPS? Quote Link to comment

Make me an offer SSG: I am going to try to find a new copy first. If I have no luck, I will post an offer. It sounds as if there might be some challenges using the software.
