(More customer reviews)My family is moving to Brazil and we purchased 2 Garmin units. One for each of our cars. I purchased this map add-on and it does have good coverage of the country. But I have a number of frustrations with the product:
1. After having spent close to $1,000 on 2 mid-to-upper level Garmin units and close to $100 on the map I find out it can only be unlocked for one Garmin unit. I realize Garmin needs to protect against people just passing the software around to others but even when going through my on-line registration that has both hardware units registered in my name they wouldn't let me unlock the maps for my second Garmin unit.
2. The "unlocking" process is extremely confusing. What should be simple and is simple for so many other products seems very "1990's" with Garmin.
3. Uploading the maps to the unit is also not simple. I purchased the product to upload all of Brazil. But the PC software needs to you select which regions of Brazil you want to upload. Once I figured it out the process was easy, but getting to that point could have been much simpler.
In summary, I'll use it because I need it but for the amount of money I've spent with Garmin I am not satisfied.
