> ...SysUIAppSwitch does not support any extension cards.

I think you mean "expansion cards".

Our terminology is confusing. In the old days, we used the term "card" for a
circuit board that contained RAM and ROM. Most devices had one card: card
number zero. I think Handspring devices have a second card for their
Springboard module. (I'm sure someone from Handspring will correct me if I'm
wrong.) You should be able to launch an app on a Springboard module using
SysUIAppSwitch.

Other media types, including SD/MMC and Memory Stick, are accessed using VFS
and the Expansion Manager. They're fundamentally different at the hardware
level: they have a serial interface rather than direct memory access (DMA).
You can't use SysUIAppSwitch to launch an app on one of these cards; you
have to copy the app into the "main memory" (the storage heap) first (and
probably delete it afterwards). This is what the Launcher does on an m505,
for example.
