Can you compare On Course Navigator's piracy protection/activation scheme?

Is there any way to tell how old the map data is for TomTom 6?
Thanks for the kudos on the review!

The activation scheme is functionally comparable between the 2 products. You have a product code on the supplied media and a device code is generated after you install. You submit these 2 codes and you're given an activation code that's good for that device only.

I looked around, but I didn't find anything that indicated the date of the maps. They do updated annually, as far as I can see, so the data should be pretty fresh.
