Not much progress, I am still waiting for a chance to try 1.0.3. Following a brutal weekend of family maintenance, its now raining and I am ill.
I decided to give the serial connection to the iPAQ another shot using a NULL modem in case the cable I had had a NULL modem, as implied by a web site I ran across. Tore the bike down to expose the serial port, plugged it in and still no go. I then took the iPAQ and cable inside to connect to my desktop machine, plugged it in with all combinations of NULL modem and not across both ports, and still no dice.
Time for a new cable, this time an official COMPAQ part (191008-B21) to replace the knock-off. Not only is the cable suspect, but the battery is a P.O.S. as well, barely holding a charge almost as bad as before. Likely old, degraged LI-ION stock.
I've been watching for more suitable donor bikes and cars for the next potential project. A boss at work on the Tesla list is getting impatient and might ask for his money back - looks like I won that EV race.
