I have the same problem, but from English to French (accent characters (é,à,è,â, etc...) are necessary in my case.

Thx for replying

There is a way to change the language of your IPAQ but at first you must say that this procedure will invalidate your warranty.
I didn't remember exactly the way but you can do this only with an official OS update if it is available under compaq Ipaq downloads for your model.
In this case ( for example the update for 36xx from PPC 2000 to PPC 2002) you must download the update in the language you want for your pda and at a certain moment of installation ( near the start) you must you an Hex editor to change the code of the language of the update. Basically you must start the update and modify his language code to the ones you have on your IPAQ.
In this way the installation will continue becouse the system will think you are installing the right update for the language of your pda... I don't remember the specifical procedure but if have found this info simply searching with yahoo with the string " changing ipaq language". One of the links contains the goods..
