Hey,

I Was wondering
If there's downside installing programs to EXT_ROM ??
It's all free on my Jasjar and I did already install several apps there.

Is there any performance issue installing to ext_rom ??
Is it the absolutly the same Read/Write/Access time speed as Main memory ??

I was thinking maybe installing frequently heavy apps to main memory will have a benefit over extended_rom installations.

Regards,
MOBILER

dunno about main memory verus extROM speed, but suspect they would be similar. I woudl recommend installing as many apps as possible to your storage card. I have a 4Gb fast SD card and don't notice any particular problems

It has been the same for me.I have a few programs that start with the start up after coming out of sleep mode that do not lag and boot up just fine.Seems like they carry the same speed as the applications on my main memory

Thanks.. that's what I assumed, but I'm still not sure. It would seem logical that the chips are the same and that only software makes 10mb of it hidden and called extendedrom. I just like to give speed requiring prg such as Voice Command the best possible perfomance they need.
