The HP T5730 I have (model: HSTNC-003-TC) was manufactured in March 2009. When I first unpacked it it seemed a little large to me. In fact this is an optical illusion(!) and it's almost the same size as the Neoware Capio 620. The photograph on the right shows it with a Neoware Capio and Wyse SX0 for comparison.

Flash: The Flash memory (top left in the photograph) is easily replaceable. It's a DOM plugged into a standard 44-pin IDE connector.
RAM: The RAM is a standard 200-pin SODIMM. The one fitted is manufactured by hynix and is marked: PC2-5300S-555-12. The part number is HYMP112S64CP6-Y5. (It's a DDR2 667MHz SODIMM).
CPU:. Tom Williams emailed me about the possibility of overclocking the CPU - something I didn't think was possible. However he persevered and emailed me again in June 2011 about this. Subsequently a chap called MoMo joined in. You'll find all this under the mods tab.
Compact Flash:. It turns out there is space on the reverse side of the circuit board for fitting a Compact Flash socket. You'll find this under the mods tab as well.
