Removing OmniBook Passwords

If you forget your password, Hewlett-Packard has a procedure to allow you to
remove it. There is a master password that will unlock each OmniBook. You
must call Technical Support and give acceptable proof-of-ownership of your
OmniBook. The fact that the OmniBook is in the hands of an HP representative
is not evidence of ownership. In addition, HP will not remove a password from
an OmniBook for anyone other than the owner, even if it involves law
enforcement agencies.

•
Acceptable proof-of-ownership (sales receipt, purchase order, etc.) with
the following information:
OmniBook's serial number.
