George, could you tell us the checksum of the WinCE image? In this way I could
be sure that I have a correct WinCE image if I want to reinstall it later.
I don't care about being able to reinstall WinCE now, however I may want to do
it if I ever sell the unit to upgrade to a new model...
This is the only reason besides availablity that is holding me from buying the
iPAQ!
