Ok to install on Australian iPaqs... have installed on two devices thus far and all seems to be working well if not a bit better.

The Australian HP web site does not have the update available.

I couldn't reset the iPaq out of the bootloader screen, however retried the ROM upgrade and all seems to be working ok.
My device has failed to upgrade the ROM for twice already...I am on my third try now...very frustrating...

do you get any error messages?

ROM upgrade checklist:
1) be sure you have the right ROM for your device
2) remove SIM [if pda phone] + Storage Card/s
3) charge device [atleast 50% best if 100%]
4) hard reset [optional]
5) connect data cable directly to USB port on the desktop/notebook [do not update thru a usb hub]
6) try not to run so many things on the desktop/notebook while upgrading

good luck with the 3rd try :wink: hope it works out for yah.

Finally I got it done! 8)
I found out that the error may due to the setup file's extraction location. The upgrade was failed when I extracted the files to drive D. :roll:
