    I just checked epocrates (the comprehensive pharmaceutical program) as I do daily to see if the storm is supported finally, and it is now!

    You can get the program from http//get.epocrates.com

    Is that correct that it is always running with no way to exit out?

    Aw... I was going to install this buy this is very bad news... Can't we click on the blackberry key and then "close application"? Anybody else confirming any way to close?

    anyone know if there is any difference between this app and the one that was "illicitly" downloadable a couple of weeks ago. (see medical storm thread). They are the same version number.

    BTW fwiw: i have had epocrates installed and running for a week or so and have have not noticed any slowdown of my storm. it running in the background is kind of nice as it loads up instantly.

    no way to close this app, but i've had it on my storm for a while.

    it doesn't slow down my storm at all and no memory leak that i can notice (i've had it on it for days with no reboot and still over 40mb memory, max i've ever had is 48).

    Oh... Yeah, I definitely wouldn't mind it running all the time as long as it doesn't affect the performance of the phone... No memory leak you say?
