When we tried out the Neoware clients they used something called Teem Talk,
or you could also choose an IBM Emulator which looked identical to the one
from Netstation Manager. We couldn't get the Neoware flash card solution
working on all of our 2200s, though - the ones with riser cards for the
flash chip socket wouldn't boot.
Client Access could be a fallback option, but i'm hoping to keep the 5250
outside of the ICA world.

We use Neoware thin clients. They have some emulator - we decided to use
Client Access instead.
