I did not have any problems doing the NON-US to US upgrade and I certainly did not hack anything.

All I did was change the regional settings on my Axim to US before starting the upgrade.

I own a brand new Axim which was originally equipped with Windows Mobile 2003 (German ROM version A00). Since I was TIRED of waiting for the fix I decided to take the plunge and go ahead and install the US patch. Installation went smoothly, and now I've got a US Axim which runs as fast as it should have in the first place.

Benchmarks are very close to the 2210. Also my 1 gig microdrive performs remarkably well.

Once I receive the German patch I can always go back and install it. I *did' save the original ROM, just to make sure.
