There must be some terminals floating around hplabs with the firmware. There was a Specials group in the data terminals division that did the hack for labs. It probably isn't a product, but you might be able to get it out of HP anyway, since a similar hack for 2622/23's (I think) was installed in some terminals that were traded to somebody over at SRI for some dues in some organization. I used to work at HPlabs, and made the 2622/3 and 2392 hacks happen, after I had added Meta keys to 264X terminals, to great appreciation.
