At first glance perhaps PalmOS isn't getting a chance to release
the memory it's allocated to handle the form.

The "handled = true;" seems like it'll give you trouble. Effectively
you're telling PalmOS "I've handled every other event you might
send this form" without actually doing anything. Since this is
likely to suppress any processing Palm OS would normally do
in response to the frmCloseEvent (such as release memory) it
could well be the source of your problem.
