  Hi Brett,
I can't state unequivocally that SKYPE willl work with your particular IPaq, however, their software is intended to work with Pocket PC 2003.

.  Hi Lou and everybody,
.Your choice about which way to go with a new device is pretty needs =
.driven and outside the normal scope of this list--but, what I'd like to =
.do is respin the topic just a gbit and ask you folks to keep on the =
.lookout for ham radio related apps that are intended to work with the =
.Pocket PC platform. I'd really like to try them with the PAC Mate. My =
.first foray into this new teritory is not actually ham radio =
.related--but is fun. Skype works really well on the PAC Mate. If anyone =
.wants to set up a Skype qso to see how the PAC Mate sounds, let me know. =
.My second prject along these lines is a program to control the Yaesu =
.FT817 with the PAC Mate. I'm playing with the app, but don't have a rig =
.to actually test with. I plan to find someone who has one when I get =
.more familiar with the app, etc.

..I know this wasn't really the thread, but I'm going to chime in with a
..serious warning. Do _not_ ever consider this remedy if/when you have to
..replace the battery in a PAC Mate QX or BX model (these are the new =
.ones
..with the built-in batteries). The PAC Mate battery has a built-in
..intelligent chip and if anyone other than FS tries to replace or =
.service the
..battery, they'll destroy the device.
..
..Also, note that having any FS hardware product opened by anyone other =
.than
..FS will result in the warranty being voided automatically.

..Lou,
..
..I know you've already said you don't have a Batteries Plus or =
.Interstate
..Battery nearby.
..
..These stores will re-build those battery packs with all new cells for =
.about
..$30 vs the $150 that Freedom Scientific will charge to replace it.
..
..They are either double A or sub C cells, depending on the model.
