Hi,

I am running Opie 1.2.1 on my hx4700 and would like to change to 1.2.3. 
I do not have to preserve anythingon the hx4700 so reinstallation is
possible.

What is the easiest way to remove 1.2.1 and install 1.2.3?  Perhaps, I
could reflash, but which image ought I to use and from where could I
find this?

Regards, Simon.
