How can I use downloaded Garmin City Navigator v9 on my eTrex

| I have downloaded Garmin City Navigator Europe v9, including an unlock key.
Installing it on the PC works fine, opening in Mapsource too.
I can also unlock the maps in Mapsource using the unlock key, but when I try to upload maps to my eTrex, it says they're not unlocked for my GPS.
Any suggestions are more than welcome.
Thanks in advance,
Gerda

Garmin don't do downloadable maps - yet.
What you have is a copy of someone elses' maps - the unlock key will
work on any PC, but need to be unlocked to your specific GPS unit ID.
If you need the maps, you have to buy them.
That said, google for Metrowizzz
