If you are going to flood your BB with apps then yeah it might be a good idea, what happens when your memory card fails?
In my case I have 15 apps that I use on a daily basis, I have 48MB of file free left. Having to goto your memory card to transfer the app to device storage to permit to work then re boot and what not just seems like a hand full for me.
Not to mention you will have to update tons more apps manually which in its self is tedious. I'm happy with the whole device app management system, I'm quite good at managing my memory so there is no issues for my BB.
My memory card is used mainly for pictures and .txt files.
Thnx, •Tripster•

- It's a security issue. that's why Rim's native apps store a majority of their data on the phones memory. The phone memory is always secure, it's part of the processor. Still, using SD media and a secured password (stored in phone memory) should give a comparable level of security.
Wonder if it's a processor limitation09-11-09 04:12 PMLike 0 - well if they where to do that it would be cool but i think it to prevent bootlegging the apps that why they have not done this yet! until they find a way for they to block multi transfer for card to card i dont think they would let people run apps off the mem card
well i wish they would at least let you save it to the on board extended memory
one of these days it will happen until then we all gota wait!!!!!!!09-11-09 04:16 PMLike 0 - well if they where to do that it would be cool but i think it to prevent bootlegging the apps that why they have not done this yet! until they find a way for they to block multi transfer for card to card i dont think they would let people run apps off the mem card

Well most developers that sell apps lock it to the PIN number of the phone. That prevents bootlegging the program in the first place.. The apps that i have purchase all require a pin number to register the application, so the unlock code will only work on the berry that has that pin that's registered..09-11-09 05:04 PMLike 0 - Its perfectly healthy to perform battery pulls on any type of cell phone, unless that phone doesn't permit you to do a battery pull. When you call tech support they will advise you to pull the battery to see if that will resolve the issue you were experiencing.

I never said anything about you using your nokia, you are heading into the future to much and not paying full attention to my post. Rather you are focusing on your intent to try to make it look like your nokia is the ultimate app phone out there.
This thread isn't about nokia's or other phones, you went way off topic.

Crackmem
Maxmem
Shrink-a-OS
OK, and a thread http://forums.crackberry.com/f95/new...-users-313399/09-13-09 11:00 AMLike 0 - Both Maxmem and Shrink-a-OS look promising. Anyone used these or have anything to say about them?
Also, it looks like for Shrink-a-OS you need to have the OS installed on your PC. I really do not want to mess around with that. I want to be able to get do everything on-phone.Last edited by cem1701; 09-13-09 at 01:23 PM.
