iPAQ HX4700 WM 6.1 upgrade

iPAQ HX4700 WM 6.1 upgrade

Requirements
: iPAQ HX4700

Overview : Latest ROM version. CE OS 5.2.61.20 Build 19716.1.1.0.
Removed from SL61V03_lite are the following:
1. Windows Media Player (can't do gapless playback)
2. Internet Explorer (didn't work on my banking site)
3. PowerPoint (never used it)
4. HP Image Viewer (redundant with "Pictures and Videos")
5. Games (ok...I may have to put these back!)
6. WelcomeCenter (I been welcomed already)
7. BTPhoneManager and some phone related registry entries
(I have a phone. I have a PDA. They don't need to talk. Thank you.)

The lite version is NOT stripped bare. For example, it still has help files for apps that are in the rom.
Opera over WiFi works fine. Activesync works over bluetooth. Word, Excel and other apps work fine.

NOTES if you want to try the lite rom:
1. Because WMP is gone, you will need to add your favourite player to play audio.
2. Because IE is gone, you will need to add your favourite browser (opera, minimo, etc.) to open files that were associated to IE. You can also open them with Word - but it's ugly.
