- Some had to visit a dealership once unplugged to enter some codes in order to make it work again upon plugging in.
- Some only had to plug in once to install.

Anyone can clarify this mess?
there is no clarification. One guy pulled his map USB stick out and then he couldn't activate it without a code. We didn't have the code so he lost his maps.

I, however, pulled mi=y map usb out, plugged in my iPod when I knew where I was going, and then when I needed the maps, I unplugged my iPod and then plugged in my maps usb and it worked fine.

Try it while you are in the Welt with the Advisor and see what happens. If you need an activation code, they can do it there. If you don't need it, then you will have the same great experience I had! yay!
