It's trivial -- a Simple Matter of Programming (tm). I've used
software on a PC which is locked to a license, but can be transferred

request key. You transmit the request key and license number to the
vendor. In return, you get a response key, which is entered into the
software. If you want to move the software to another machine, you ask
it for a revoke key, which disables the software on that machine. You
send the revoke key to the vendor, who records the license available
for reinstallation.

Great. iTunes for GPS.

No thanks. I'd rather be able to load new mapsets without having to
get permission from Garmin each time.

But since you can't, you'd rather go without a solution? Your
nose, your face.
