I have a Sharp Mobilon HC-4500 and am running the factory installed WinCE 2.0. If there is any way to do so, I'd like to upgrade to 3.0. I don't know if there is a way to "flash" the ROM chip or a way to purchase one with the new OS. Can anyone help?

FYI, the upgrade from Sharp expired over a year ago. Your only hope is to find the rom chip on e-bay or search message boards.
