All,

Considering the limited 32MB of RAM, I am limiting my use of Today Screen plugins.

These things have always been a memory problem, even on machines with lots of RAM.

Resco has a nice app launcher for the today screen, and that's the only one I've added.

I've had zero memory problems so far. Right now I'm running the following apps, and all are loaded:

1. PocketInformant
2. Pocket Bible
3. Aleph Stock Quote
4. Internet Explorer
5. ActiveSync

Mark,

How has Pocket Informant performed so far? Does it eat up a lot of RAM? I've used PI on all of my PPC's, but I've hesitated installing it on my 700w because of the limited RAM. Today I was in a meeting and had to use the default WM calendar :pukeface:

I don't have a problem just leaving it running. I haven't done a reboot test to see exactly how much RAM it is using.
