Carl,
yes and no. First of all, you need to have the latest IBM2SS14 from the
PCCard-package off DDpak. It's a SWC feature, but with eCS protection, you
should also get it.
Trick here is to use ONLY the driver, you don't need the rest - actually
you "downgrade" a few things, if you use the whole package. So, just unzip
and copy IBM2SS14 to your boot-drive.

With the Hibernation: It's right, that you cannot write the hibernation
file to a HPFS or NTFS partition, and we don't want to do this !!
You need to have Free space, where the utility creates a FAT16 partition
for you to store the hibernation file in. Unfortunately, this space needs
to be within the 1023 cylinder restriction.
So, you OS (OS/2, eCS, NT, whatever) can boot off from whatever
filesystems, the Hibernation file itself needs to be FAT.

I don't understand the issue with the Bootmanager. Actually it hibernates
fine with Bootmanager on my T23. So, you shoulg give it a try.

For the Bluetooth stuff, you are right. I talked to a few people and
actually, it would not be really difficult.  Someone to give 5k $ and
you'll get it.
For the Lucent stuff: The driver for the chip used in the T20 was released
a few weeks ago and work for the newer chip is in plan (Did I just say that
?? No, I didn't, right ?!).
