I just bought a pair of Mobilepro 900's. I can't wait to get them in. What is involved in upgrading one of them to a 900c? Do I replace the orginal ROM board with a 900c board? Or do I simply reflash the current unit? And if so, where can I buy the software?

The 900/900c has Flash ROM for the OS. Upgrading involves finding a copy of the upgrade (it comes on a CF card) and following the directions for reflashing the ROM. No hardware changes required. Unfortunately, NEC doesn't sell the upgrade any more, so you need to find it on Ebay.

I made a nice little trade to get my hands on an upgrade kit. I can't wait to play around with them.
