How does this activate? Hydrostatic?

You can activate it manually or it has an auto deploy via rip cord. The unit attaches to the manual inflate tube on the life jacket and there is a cord that attaches via an adhesive strip to the inflated part of the jacket. So, when the jacket deploys it pulls the rip cord and activates the device.

Can i test this with my chart plotter, that it sets a mob waypoint?

Yes, but the chart plotter has to be connected to an AIS transceiver, then configure your chart plotter to show the AIS targets on screen.

Are you able to re-program a new mmsi for a different boat later?

I don't have my device and instructions available to me right now (winter storage) but knowing how it is programmed, I would be astounded if it could not be.

Could this be used as a Solo Sailer? Can it be programmed to somehow disengage the autopilot so the boat would turn into the wind?

This can be used at sea and would need to be on the person at all times. This type of device cant be programmed.
