You need enough free space in the storage heap to buffer the entire prc,
which should be about he same size as the application's database, ie. 112K.
This free space needn't be in a single contiguous chunk, but it must be in
chunks of 4K. Of course, the memory manager will compact the heap if
necessary, but some chunks can't be moved. So just because the device has >=
112K free, doesn't mean you can beam the app. The general rule is that you
need a little more than the size of the app in order to beam the app.
In order to receive the app, you need a little more than twice as much
space. You need enough room to buffer the prc, and enough room to create the
database.
