I just pre-purchased a COPY of the v3.0 update from Pioneer's site - they have a SALE on it for $60 currently on their website !!!!!

I know its hasn't been released but I own two F700bt's.... and I only purcahsed one set of maps. Do you think I will be able to install the maps on both units or will the AVIC write back to the two SD Cards and make them inoperable so I won't be able to install it in my second F700bt ???

Any help would be amazing .... even though it hasn't been released just yet.

Thank you for any help !!!!

If you guys have install questions - feel free to ask- I'm a 10yr installer !!!!

i strongly believe that you can install on as many units as u want.

o, you will not be able to use one purchase on 2 units. you will need to buy one update per unit. There is going to be a key-gen or something that uses the serial number from each individual unit. This has also been covered many thousands of times in other posts. try doing a search and some reading and you will find all of this info.

noxguy83, yes I know there will be a keygen... but in purchasing the update - do you think i can make an image of each SD Card... copy it to another SD Card and change something in the SD Card that will allow it to be used multiple times?

Is it worth me buying it and possibly uploading the images to you guys to figure out a way to remove the "keygen" for the update... and then you guys will have access to a clean update copy?

please stop double posting

There's about 40-50 users here in the Hacks forum already running 3.0 on Their F700's.

There's no Keygen. No serial.

Try looking at 1/2 threads on the first page of this forum. People have it up and running, and have for a few weeks already.

You people crack me up

According to a respesentative that i talked to, the sd card won't be locked onto a specific unit. however the sd card will be locked against copying. therefore you can use the same card on two units but you won't be able to use any copies of the card you might make. at least that what i was told

Well that aint gonna stop people hacking into their F whatevers to pull the entire flash disk onto a SD and pass it on will it.

Only way to stop that would have been for Pioneer to completely lock out WinCE. But as we know, that hasnt happened either!

Apparently, this knucklehead at Pioneer doesn't understand how Windows works. You can't make files on an SD card not copy to one machine, but able to copy to another unless you're running a Domain with Active Directory permissions and security and give it a list of computers on the domain it is allowed to copy to.

Last time I checked, none of our AVICs are on a Domain.

What I will expect from the new update is an SD card lock. SD cards can be done VERY easily copy protected...

But on the other side no protection left unbroken ...

SD cards use what's called CPRM, but that doesn't prevent copying from the card. It simply requires the user to have a CPRM compliant card reader, and may limit the number of times copies can be made to one (or more). But once that one copy is made - it's a free for all. The Flash Drive on your AVIC has no copy protection.
