I have ALL my aftermarket apps stored in RAM ... referred to as "Storage Memory". This is part of the 64mb RAM you get with the 400. This memory is kept alive by the batteries, and will be erased during a hard reset or removal of both batteries.

By creating a backup in Active Sync, stored on the PC, this all will be restored during a restore if it becomes corrupted or lost due to whatever.

The ROM, 48mb worth, holds the pre-installed software that loads into RAM at startup (in Program Memory). The ROM is non-volatile, so it does not require battery power to keep intact.
Some of this ROM is extra space, not needed by the OS, and is made writable for you to use ... called "Built-in Storage"
