George can put me down as a installer for the iPAQ.
However, we will need to make some advanced preparation. Please
document t=

unit model you have and all accessories. Also, we will need a host

to use to load the boot loader into the iPAQ and for other possible
needs. =

Go ahead and document it here so people can follow along.
At the present time, if you want to be able to sychronize your iPAQ=20
applications with a desktop, I would choose the Opie palmtop
environment as=
=20
the other environments do not have sychronization established yet.

OK I looked up Opie and it looks great to me. As for my Ipaq I have model 3765 with no accesories just the USB cradle and power supply. I do have a serial cable for the 3800 model that I bought by mistake from FRY's then I quickly lost the receipt(I was in the process of moving) So if anyone wants it let me know I want 0$ for it. Its of no value to me.
As for a host machine for the boot loader I have a laptop running Debian unstable and a Desktop Dualbooting Suse 8.2pro and Win98se. I live right across the street from UAT so I would have a problem hauling my stuff over there.
Anything I missed.
TIA
