the only today plugin I use is PocketBreeze and that again just runs.

I run all my programs installed on the SD card with music, movies, maps and large games etc...on the 2GB CF

With the help of Makuu I run mortscript PIE and it runs like a swift dream, opening a ramdisk then PIE automatically, then closing both when you leave, brilliant bit of scripting.

so all in all, why would I want to go back to 2003SE, except for constant re-booting, games sometimes not loading till you soft boot, bluetooth not connecting till you soft reboot...conclusions

2003SE- Soft reboot is your friend
I also use script to launch iGO, you can try to use it and adapt it for you.

Here is the one I use:

Quote:
############################################
# iGo Launcher #
############################################

#Reading BT state
RegReadDWord HKLM,System\State\Hardware,Bluetooth,btState

#if BT inactive
If ( btState = 8 )

# we run BTSwitch
RunWait "\Program Files\BTswitch\BTSwitch.exe"

EndIf


#If Calligrapher active
If ProcExists CalliGrapher.exe

Kill CalliGrapher.exe

EndIf

#We run Hibernate to free Max of Ram
RunWait "\Program Files\Hibernate.exe"

#We launch iGO
RunWait "\SD Card\iGO\IGO.exe"

#We stop BT
RunWait "\Program Files\BTswitch\BTSwitch.exe"

#Calligrapher restart
Run "\Program Files\CalliGrapher\CalliGrapher.exe"
You need to get BTswitch (v0.1) and the old version of Hibernate

In my exemple I use the following path for BTswitch, Hibernate and igo:

"\Program Files\BTswitch\BTSwitch.exe"
"\Program Files\Hibernate.exe"
"\SD Card\iGO\IGO.exe"

You must update the path that you are using and change it accordingly in the script. I also notice that iGO needs a lot of memory to run OK, that's why I'am shutting down calligrapher to free some memory, and then I restart it after closing iGO. So you can also write your own script to terminate some apps or process prior lauching iGO and then restart it after closing iGO.

Also this script will check if BT is running or not, if it's not running it will run it and make it ready to use for iGO. Then BT is turned off after closing iGO.
