I've been quiet 'cos I was hoping to finally open up my MP100 (1.1) and do
a ROM transplant from a broken screened 110 (1.3) and thus I'd see for
myself, but I'm not going to get time to do it anytime soon...
that said, my thought is that the MP110/110 1.3 (which should be the same
as the Expertpad 1.3) has a different shaped ROM than the little ROM card
used on the MP120/1.3, and thus you won't be able to physically do the
install. I've done the MP120 1.3-to-2.0 switch myself, but not seen the
old MP110 innards yet.
But this has been the response I recall (won't even fit) anytime this has
been brought up on the list (it's been a while though). I'm not sure why
it's quiet now :)
Hope I'm wrong, but the MP120/2.0 is a nice ROM to have in hand.
MP120/1.3 are a lot less $ to purchase and you could for sure plop the ROM
in those....
Let us know how it works out!
