I have not been busy over the last few weeks, ( I am a flying instructor and
the weather is crap) So this is what I have done to my iPAQ 5450. A hard
re set and all HP iPAQ WiFi and Bluetooth upgrades... Then one app at a
time, with backup at each stage, before sync ing any personel data. All
backups burnt to CD for future restores to any point in the system build up.
THis way, should the machine start doing stranger things than normal, just
restore to aclean system and re sync data

Do you have all the latest drivers and firmware upgrades from HP check
