The Axim probably uses Dynamic RAM because it takes up less space since there is not as much circuitry as in static RAM. The dynamic RAM requires a resfresh to keep the capacitors charged since they lose charge over time, so if there is no power to refresh the capacitors, the data is lost. I only know this because I'm studying for my Computer Architecture final tomorrow, well....I'm taking a break right now. Wish me luck. ;)
