re:  "We recently got hold of a bunch of Hewlett Packard HP 2624B terminals.
      Unfortunately we do not posess a termcap ..."

The 2624 is a superset of the 2622A, which is a superset of the 2645A.  I
have a 2629C (OEM 2624A) at home, and the 2622 termcap/terminfo entry works
just fine.

The features that the 2624 has that the 2622 does not are almost entirely
related to block(page)-mode data entry and HP-Multipoint terminal
interfacing.  These features are essentially useless on async character-mode
RS-232C systems like most UN*X systems.
