    Nope Copilot only allows 1 device to be registered with each product key. So far no hacks on it that actually work.

    I had copilot...went back to my cheap Garmin if that tells you anything. I couldn't follow either one reliably, but it gives me a general idea and timeframe.

    if you buy co-pilot11 you will need streets and trips to look up the street names that 11 can't find! I have 9 and 11 they never update any maps, I can say do not buy it you would be better off adding a 100 more and getting a stand alone unit.

    Co pilot 11 wont run correct on screen rez higher than 800x600.

    The key wont take unless it can see the GPS device as well.

    And finally you cant update the address. version 5 you could right click the map and tell it a new address.

    Good luck. I gave mine away, worst product ever made (out $200 for bad software)

    Mine has been great for me, the only thing I dislike about copilot 11 is that the majority of truckstops aren't on it. Personally I would check into a standalone unit like the one that came out recently by Cobra.

    I played with some standalone at a TS one day (I've had a garmin for a couple years now) and the Rand Mcnally blew me away! Ease of use, free updates for life, easy to report and correct errors. just a nice unit.

    I bought Copilot because of already having the laptop with me, and I got it on sale very cheap right after it came out. If I could do it over again I would have waited another week and got a better standalone unit, but Copilot has still done what I needed it to. Now days I use it more as an alert when I am in an unfamiliar areas that a turn is coming up.
