There is a softpaq for the iPAQ 2200 series. Currently, it is in English only. I presume other languages will follow shortly. Issues addressed:
• Corrects Bluetooth (BT) Manager lockup that occurred if the device was turned OFF while the status screen or Active Connections screen was open.
• Corrects BT Manager lockup when trying to add or remove connections in the PAN Manager.
• Corrects issue where BT would not start when the device was turned ON and attempted to connect to ActiveSync.
• Corrects BT File Explorer lockup after access was denied from an FTP connection through Ericsson T610 phone.
• Corrects system lockup when disconnecting a PAN connection via the incoming connection icon.
• Corrects the issue where contacts lost the name fields when multiple duplicate contacts were received on a separate OPP connection.
• Corrects the 'Yes to All' functionality in the overwrite screen that appears when receiving a contact from a remote device.
• Enhanced help files
I think this is a RAM update, not ROM. According to the ActiveSync manager, it was going to take up 2.2MB of RAM, so I passed since I am not affected by any of the above issues. If anyone can confirm that it really does a ROM install post in the thread. Usually ROM installs though are just CAB files you tap on and it stresses that the device must be plugged in during the update. The instructions mention none of this.
