I just bought a IPAQ C800 from a surplus auction. How do I open the case??
I cannot find any latches. There is a plastic brace on the back held by two
screws (torx with a pin in the middle) I don't have the right bit to get
this brack off. Is this how the case disassembles?

to get the case off the ipaq you will need a torx t15 security bit,
you will be able to get this from any good hardware store. Once you
have got this you will be able to remove the case.
if you want more details just go to the hp website and look for the
maintenance and service manual or look for Compaq iPAQ Family of
Internet Devices -- Chapter 4 Removal and Replacement

i hope that this helps
