I am not the original poster, but one of the issues I have with the mapped folders is that when you open an app that last used a network resource, sometimes it starts in that directory. If you're not on the network when you reopen the program, you have to wait for the PDA to look for the network drive before you can access local content. This is mainly an issue in the Windows Media Player and Notes applications.

Another reason the original poster may want to unmap the drive is that the person may simply be away from that computer for an extended period of time. For example my parents have a computer at their home, but I have no use for leaving that drive mapped when I am away at college.
