As part of normal synching, I got an ePocrates system update today. The new version has, for the first time, support for my SD card! In the new version (7.50), the Dx and Sx databases can be moved into the \SD Card\Program Files\Essentials directory, saving about 2.5 MB. On the main screen, under the App menu, there is a "memory management" option that allows this. This still leaves 6MB in RAM, but that's better than 8.5!

Also, the update process is a little sloppy; it left behind about 1MB of files in the \Windows directory (also RAM) that should have been deleted.

You can safely delete:
EpocRxDataLib113.dll
ePocSuiteLib113.dll
ePocUILib113.dll
ePocDataLib113.dll

and reclaim the space (leaving the *114.dll versions of the above files in place).

And there was much rejoicing.... :cheers:

Great news! Thanks for the update, Kenster :-)

I cannot seem to find the files, BTW, Epo works OK on WM5

I've tried running Sx/Dx off my SD card, but there seems to be a slight lag (1-2 seconds).

Does this happen to you or do I need to get one of those 30x SD cards?

I still have about 20 MB of space to spare on my main drive after loading the full version of Epocrates on it, so I'm not pressed to save space. Just wondering for the future.

I find that in general, any program I install on my SanDisk Ultra II SD card loads slightly faster than if they had been installed on the built-in ROM. This is on an x51v. So you might benefit from getting a faster card.
