Suspend frequently. Use the Power control panel to shorten the length of
continuous idle time before your V35 auto-suspends. Press the power button
to turn off your V35 when it is not in use, even for a short time.
Always use AC power when connecting your V35 to your PC. Note
that your V35 will not auto-suspend while it is connected.
Turn off sounds. Use the Sounds & Notifications control panel to turn off all
but the most necessary system sounds.
Avoid using memory card accessories while on battery power. Some
memory cards use considerable power and will quickly drain your battery.
Do not “listen” for infrared transfers. Although you can set your Pocket
PC to constantly monitor the IR port for files sent from other devices, doing
so will quickly drain your batteries.
Managing Memory
Your V35 uses two kinds of memory: storage and program memory (RAM), and
optional memory cards.
Storage and Program Memory
RAM (Random Access Memory) on your V35 is shared between storage memory
and program memory. “Storage memory” is used to store the data you create
and additional programs you install. “Program memory” is used to run
programs on your V35. Your V35 automatically manages the allocation between
storage and program memory. However, in some situations, such as when the
memory is running out, your V35 may not be able to automatically adjust the
allocation.
Memory Cards
Memory cards are small, removable flash storage cards that enable you to
expand the memory of your V35. You can use memory cards for backup
storage, archives, or to transfer large files to other devices. Your V35 supports
Secure Digital memory cards. Memory cards can be purchased from a variety of
third-party vendors.
SDRAM Memory Allocation
Please see “SDRAM Memory Allocation” in the Appendix on page 84.
