My app now reaches 500Kb. When I try to beam it to old devices with
little RAM (like a Palm III), this can become a problem as the OS
requires twice the app size (i.e. 1 Mb) in free space because it first
keeps it as a temporary file in memory before it actually copies it to a
PRC file. My app is thus "unbeamable" to devices with less than 1 Mb of
free memory, whether it previously existed on the device or not. This
was a problem in a recent caving expedition, away from a PC (I note this
problem does not happen when I transfer the file via a HotSync, like
when I use PilotInstall.)
Is there a way to force the OS to simply store the IR-received data into
a PRC file without first storing it into a temporary file? Does that
require that I handle the app beam myself or is there a 3rd party app
that supports that?
