The big picture question is: Can I use ActiveSync to reinstall all of the software? i.e., presently, ROM update aside, using my desktop version of ActiveSync, I can go to "Tools" --> "Add/Remove Programs and uninstall or reinstall by checking or unchecking the from the program listing. Can I use this approach rather than finding all of my individual installation files, and reinstalling one by one, etc. as a way to simplify getting my software back after updating to A12?

I'm presently using ver 4.1 of ActiveSync... if I update to 4.2 prior to ROM upgrade, would my program listing (as above) remain intact? Does one simply install 4.1 over 4.2 or do you have to uninstall 4.1 first (in which case, what happens to the "Add/Remove Programs" listings?).

Summarizing, would the following scenario work?

(1) update ActiveSync 4.1 to 4.2 (by installing over existing 4.1)
(2) make sure 4.2 connects with the Axim successfully
(3) upgrade the ROM from A06 to A12
(4) Add programs back in from the ActiveSync list that came into existing when installing under A06 ROM.
