It looks like you don't have to use HP Flash and you can put more than 1GB into the t5720's

update
i got the 5720 in and played with it and installed net frame 2-0 from HP,then went to download ProScan
and the first thing the program did was ask if i wanted to download net frame and i click yes, then the program stoped said something like not a 32 file.did this a few time with out hp net frame still did the same. so the out come was no way with it to run ProScan.sill will try some other way.
tuesday my sound card will be in to try that lol
I did get teamspeak to run and SimpleCast to run also

Alex,
Try downloading .net 2.0 directly from Microsoft on another computer, put it on a memory stick, and then run it on the thin client. I think i read somewhere that the HP version and the Microsoft version is different, and that the microsoft version will work. For some reason, you cannot download the file directly from microsoft on the thin client, you'll need to do it from a regular computer.

Has anyone tried using Trunk88 on these, more specifically the HP 5720? I would love to get one of these, and use it to control my scanner so i let it do its thing and not have my laptop on all the time.

Trunk88 is a Dos program i think, think the 5710 should work
the 5710 is much less then the 5720 on ebay
put a link for trunk88 and i will try it for you,if program goes on then it will work
i have the 5710 and 5720 will try it on both as i am still playing with them to see which
scanners program will work with it for audio and text
i use Teamspeak, simpleCast, ProScan
out of the 3 the only one i cant get to work is Proscan

The original Trunk88 program was based in DOS, the newer version is for Windows.
http://home.ica.net/~phoenix/wap/TRUNK88/
Win32-TRUNK88-474.zip is the file that contains the latest version.
Thank you for trying this for me. I really appreciate it!

Another alternative?
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=9050206&type=product&id=1218012526050
In store price $199.
Comes with keyboard, and screen built in. I am going to assume they are stackable too. Should have enough power to run streaming software and a few usb sound cards along with the built in sound.
Overall, may involve less work setting up + a few added features.

But it comes with Linux.
I don't know of any scanner software or streaming software that runs on Linux.

Flash memory limitation on writes
Just a caution: when I was researching thin clients with XPE for work I discovered that flash memory has a limit on the number of writes before it goes belly-up. So turn off logging and any other operations and tasks that might write to the flash frequently. You might find your thin client turns anorexic on you and dies.

OK, I'm trying not to be too much of a pain, but I have a decision to make.
I need to get 512meg to replace my 256meg.
Once I get the 512, it will be empty.
How do I get to the HP site to install XPe?
Will 512meg be enough to run XPe, Windows Encoder, DirectX, Logmein, and a USB WIFI device?
I have a 1gig USB flash drive now...but installing these extras is just not working. And, I have to remove the drive whenever the client is rebooted.
I'd like a set-up to where everything loads up and runs upon reboot...(at least Logmein)
I bought this 5710 for the sole purpose of streaming a scanner, without using something that makes noise or gets hot.
Heck, I'd even spend the money to get that mini-laptop thing that was suggested earlier...if they have one that runs XP.
Thanks for all the info provided and still to come. PM's welcome.

You can get a used Eee pc with XP loaded in it already from Ebay/Craigs List ~ $180 (same goes for other netbooks). Also might want to consider ITX micros and minis although a built up system might end up costing way more.
Just something else to consider.

Happy to report the t5710 runs UniTrunkier perfectly! I absolutely love it, total silence and small enough to sit on the desk without taking up space.
Regarding Framework .NET 2.0 I found this which may be worth trying: Download details: .NET Framework 2.0 for XPe

Framework .NET 2.0 / ProScan for XPE
I have been successful in my effort to run ProScan on a Thin Client. Here are instructions that I used which work perfectly on my HP t5710 (1.2GHz/512MB). Only need to follow steps 1 thru 4, then you just install ProScan and should be all set. You may need to install Windows Installer 3.1 before loading the .Net Framework 2.0 package.

ProScan
1.Boot your thin client and disable the flash disk write protection. On HP, this is done by right-clicking the padlock icon and disabling EWF and then rebooting
Quesstion...by right-clicking the padlock icon....were is this
i did everything but could not find "by right-clicking the padlock icon"
thinking about puting my Icon 1000 on it as i have all my Procan on my other computers
the Icom would give me 9 on line lol

Alex,
You need to log in as Administrator on the thin client first. To do this, go to start, then log off. While clicking on 'Log Off', press and hold the shift key on the keyboard, keep holding until you get the login screen. The username is: administrator, the password is: Administrator (yes, the password is case sensitive, so make sure A is capitalized).
Thanks,
Mike
