Can IBM c500 rebadge use Palm m500 patches/upgrades?

Archived from groups: comp.sys.palmtops.pilot (More info?)

I've got an c500 on the way to me (eBay) and it currently has the 4.0
OS. PalmOne site shows a 4.1 upgrade for the m500. Will this install
on the c500 or is there something special in the rebadged IBM that
will prevent this?

I haven't found any mention of 4.1 availability on the IBM support
pages yet.

I'm looking for the 4.1 upgrade because it apparently fixes support
for larger SD cards.

You're fine. They're identical machines.
