Hi all,

Well in my excitement at getting my X3i, I installed loads of programs and games to test them out and decide which ones I wanted to keep.

Now, I've pretty much loaded down the internal memory, and the Ax has become pretty sluggish, so I have a few (random) questions:

1. Roughly how much program memory is it good to keep aside out of the 64 ?

2. If I install programs onto an SD card, will it cause any problems when using the Ax while not having the card inserted (obviously excluding programs that try to run at startup)? (I doubt there will be, but I did recall having some problems with apps on my E115 when installed to CF cards.)

3. Do most people run their Ax in "Auto" mode or "Max Performance"?

4. Any freeware apps that clean those annoying leftover files from uninstalled apps?

5. What programs do people usually install into their BIS? (I'm pretty sure I have a few of the popular apps, and I just want an idea of which ones I should install into BIS)

I'm planning on making a list of Apps and Games that I've decided to keep, and then do a hard reset and just install those. Hopefully that should free up a lot of wasted space. I've not started using the PIM features, so there's nothing to backup yet.

Thanks in advance for any help
