ROM Update 1.10 For HP iPAQ 1940 Series
http://h18007.www1.hp.com/support/files/HandheldiPAQ/us/download/20508.html
There is a looooong list of fixes and enhancements. The English download is 14.9MB. Other languages will follow soon. This will require a hard reset, so make sure you've done a final sync to get all of your data into Outlook. Restoring from a pre-1.10 backup is not recommended. Fixes and enhancements include:
� Corrects SD Card initialization issue.
� Updates the BlueTooth driver to resolve Bluetooth lockup issue.
� Corrects iPAQ Backup shutdown after 10 seconds when a backup is scheduled.
� Connectivity: Accept header for pIE is configurable
� Connectivity: Can connect with 802.1x to Windows 2003 Server with PEAP fast reconnect enabled
� Connectivity: Connectivity bubble displays GPRS status correctly when connected through proxy
� Connectivity: JavaScript event handler fires correctly
� Connectivity: pIE correctly encodes URLs with "&lang" references
� Connectivity: pIE uses cached pages when offline even for a local server
� Connectivity: Improves wireless technologies
� Contacts: Contacts are sorted according to the Country selected in Regional Settings
� Contacts: Removes duplicate radio telephone number from Contacts List view
� Feature request: Wireless Protected Access
� Inbox: Clarification of location of SMS inbox
� Inbox: Short messages are not duplicated
� Inbox: SMS messages with alphanumeric address are parsed correctly
� Instant Messenger: IM signs in
� Localization: Ability to enter full IP address for DNS entry in Spanish
� Localization: Able to save contacts with Far East characters in both first and last name
� Localization: Can use partial Cyrillic name to find contacts
� Localization: Errant character no longer inserted by Action button on KOR
� Localization: KOR keyboard allows for the �~� character
� Settings: CHT owner info can be shown on power-on
� Settings: Device properly returns to power off state after an alarm has fired
� Shell: Alarms and meeting reminders use high-quality MIDI playback
� Shell: Improves data integrity when file system is nearly full
� Sync: Improves USB reliability

Wait.....WPA? Does the 1940 have integrated 802.11b? If not, why is it getting WPA when the 5400 and 5500 series (that do have integrated 802.11b) don't yet have WPA? :confused totally:
Or, am I totally confused? If so, please straighten things out for me. TIA!!

Corrects SD Card initialization issue.

Does any body know exactly what this issue is... I couldn't find anything about it on the forums.
I've been fairly happy with my 1945, and I'm hesitant to apply the ROM upgrade if I don't really have anything that needs to be fixed.

be very careful with this updte. only install it if you think you need it. IE if there is smething wrong with your ppc. I did it without even thinking about it as i assumed this was an upgrade to the ROM and it crashed my PPC. i now have to send it back to HP to have the ROM re-flashed.

I recommend taking the update, I just RMA'ed my unit last week and I'm sure if you ever have any problems they would recommend you apply this update before going further with tech suport. Worst case is if the unit starts acting up after you update but if you do it now (while you still have warrenty) you can probably still get them to RMA the unit. they're quite fast. it took only 3 days! =)
