I've been corresponding directly with Jason on this, but I'll post
here as well for completeness. I'm using an HP IPAQ HX2495, running
Windows CE 5.0, and DB2 version PPC 1.0.5. In case anyone doesn't
know, for the IPAQ models the fourth digit represents whether the
product was sold directly by HP (0) or by a third party vendor (5).
So an HX2490 and an HX2495 are the exact same unit, but sold via
different sales channels.
