Is there a way to make a Palm retain its loaded

know if they're all like this, but all the Palm's I've
seen lose everything when the batteries die. Is there
a model that does not do that, or is there a way that
I could make the Palm retain its loaded programs &
data?
RAM is volatile memory. If you lose power you lose the memory -- no way
around that. So if you are storing your apps/data in RAM then you are
vulnerable. What you want is non-volatile memory, so put your data/apps
on an SD card, or an internal non-volatile SD or hard-drive. The newer
devices T650, T5, TX, LD, all have both volatile (RAM) and non-volatile
storage built-in. Bob
