Right, the best thing to do on PDAs is to leave as much as possible
inside the pdbs. If you have a large amount of data, think about to
display and alter them inside the pdb. Displaying is usually not a
problem at all, to alter could be a problem.

don't load all your data into memory at the same time. keep only what you
are currently working with in ram and the rest in a palm database file. you
will need to redesign your data structures so they keep the minimum amount
of data and load data from a pdb as needed. take a look at the address book
sample included in the sdk. it can help you understand this concept. any
other developers here have an example project they could point out?
if you keep your data in a palm db file, you will be limited to 64k of data
per record, but will have the ability to store thousands of records. you
could possibly store each of the 600 registers in its own individual record
and load only a few in memory at a time.
