Sure - just order it for the 400 (presuming you haven't permanently
applied SF48155).
For your PC you can just directly download it from the web, or from the
400 once it's at the correct level.
The download limits may be different in the US, but in Canada SF48155 is
'small' enough to download over the ECS modem (it does take 2 to 3 hours
at 19.2Kbps though), so the earlier service pack must also be small
enough to download via ECS.
