When I slipstreamed it, I used a Tablet PC CD image that already had SP2 on
it, but I slimmed down the install so that I could fit them both on the same
CD. I also was using a MSDN CD key so I can't really say for sure what would
have happened had I used an OEM key.

I know that there are lots of knowledgeable people on Tablet PC Buzz that
have done this. Or at least there were before it became an abandoned
wasteland. I don't know if you can still dig up some of the old messages
there.
