Managing memory

The memory on your HP Jornada is allocated between storage memory and program memory. You can specify how much of the total memory is used for storage and how much is used for running programs. If you notice that your HP Jornada is running slowly or that your programs do not run consistently, try increasing program memory. If you need more memory for files and docu- ments, increase storage memory.

On models 690 and 690e, a maximum of 16MB can be designated as storage memory.
