HOW TO USE:

       1. Download the SoftPaq to a directory on your hard drive.

       2. Execute the downloaded file and follow the on-screen instructions
          to unpack the ROM Update files to a directory (NOTE: This directory
          should not contain any file or folder from any previous ROM Upgrade). 

       3. Establish an Activesync connection between the iPAQ Pocket PC and host
          PC through either a USB or Serial connection. 

       4. Execute the RUU.exe file in the directory created in Step 2 above to 
          begin the upgrade process. Follow the instructions displayed by the
          ROM Upgrade Utility. 

       5. Delete the self-extracting file downloaded in Step 1, if desired. 

INSTALLATION NOTES:

       1. During the update, the ROM Update Utility will:
           - Query your device for current ROM image information.
           - Validate that the new ROM image is compatible with your device.
	   - Automatically place the device in flash mode.
           - Update the ROM image on your device.
	   - Request that you Reset your device upon completion.

       2. Important: Disable the Standby and Hibernation modes on the
          host PC. If Standby or Hibernation is activated during the
          upgrade process, a critical error may occur.

       3. Important: Plan enough time to start and complete the update process.
          The total time required to perform a ROM update is estimated to be as follows:
           - USB - 20 minutes
           - Serial - 90 minutes
        
       4. Important: Do not interact with your device or remove it from AC power
          or the cradle/cable once the status bar appears on the iPAQ and the actual 
          update has started.

       5. If an error message is displayed during the process, follow any available 
          instructions to correct the condition and start the utility again.

       6. The update process can be performed while connected to a host PC either
          as a Guest or with an established partnership.
