Where to install Programs?
Ok, recently it has dawned upon me that you can install programs to different directories of your dell. I was curious as to where you guys install your programs. I have just been installing them ALL into the default directory, is this a bad move? Reply with any advice! Thanks a bunch!

If you take a look at MyPDA I have already installed a lot of programs. Do I have to uninstall all of them and start over again, installing them to the SD card?

Uninstalling and Reinstalling is your best and safest bet. :approve:

Put all files, MP3'3 and movies on SD card. Put everyday stuff on BIS ( beta Player, tutorials, Pocket Informant). On the main memory I only put programs I use for the today screen. Keep MM to the minimum.

there is a link to a help thread in my signature that gives some advice on installing programs on your pda. Check it out, as it might help you decide "what to put where".
