Dear Graham,
    Thanks very much, I found them. I almost got them from your site;
    since the repositories were unavailable; but I concentrated on
    getting my backup n800 up instead. I did see the n900 comes with
    built in utilities, but I'm assuming they are going to be of
    limited use for me. At any rate all my data is tied up in GPE
    database anyway. Thanks very much.
