Yes, but this is a device with internal WIFI, so HP could do it.
I don't think that the drivers from Socket will be able to work WPA-PSK with
a device that doesn't have it on the OS.
At the socket site ( http://www.socketcom.com/product/WL6004-322.asp ) they
say:
"Supports WPA and WPA-PSK on Windows Mobile 2003 Second Edition, original WM
2003 with ROM upgrade (some devices), Windows XP SP2, and Windows XP SP1
with WPA Wireless Security Update".
So the real question is what do they mean by Some Devices? I couldn't find a
list.
