Is 128MB RAM really necessary for a PDA? Does having more RAM take more battery power to run? I really like the h5555 and found it at a local Sam’s Club for $562.

Has anyone seen a need for 128MB or noticed the difference from a different model? :confused totally:

Thanks.

More ram is good.

do you plany to just use the calander and contacts function??? "Sure I do, what else would I want it for" say most people. But then you get into the whole MP3 thing, then movies, a few ebooks. Maybe a few PDF files. emails, for me its digi cam pics and documents. it all adds up. dont forget that memory is also used to run your applications.

64mb wont hold that much. you install your pdf reader and all the other nick nacks you really dont need but end up installing anyway and slowly your precious memory evaporates like the last drops of water in a desert.

As for the power thing, dont think it makes much difference.,
