Hack your iPAQ

In what has to be one of the more hard-core hacks I've seen on a Pocket PC, someone named "VASSILLIOS" has found a way to switch the language installed on the iPAQ. So if you have a French-language iPAQ and want to change it to English, this will show you how. A word of warning: it's not for the faint of heart. If you don't know what a hex editor is, this probably isn't something you should try.
If only HP would have made this easier for us by simply having a language ROM download that would let you switch languages at whim.
