[iPAQ] suggestion for switching between OSs

A great way to have multiple OSs, and switch between them, for those
with a CF or PCcard pak would allow for an easy way from any OS to
back up the flash to the pak and to load the flash from the pak.

UI could offer two buttons, one for each direction. Backing up
would require input of a filename (virt kbd or hw recog), writing
from file will require a file selection dialog.

Whether it runs in the current OS or raw on the hw (as per current
bootldr), it would work much better than serial or even usb.

Given the number of options now for the iPAQ, this would prove very
useful.

I'll catch up with my new one in about two weeks (abroad now) and may
spend some time workign on it, if I have a pak by then. (I've got a
spare microdrive, but haven't found a cf pak in stock, yet. Anyone
seen any at the online retailers?) I'll be spending hack time on the
iPAQ doing *something*, perhaps this, unless someone beats me to it.
