Installing M-Business Client to use a secure digital (SD)card on your Microsoft OS device
On Windows Mobile Pocket PC, Windows Mobile 5 and 6, and Microsoft Smartphone devices that support
secure digital (SD) cards (flash memory addition for mobile devices), M-Business Client allows you to use
your SD card two ways: you can install M-Business Client on the card and/or you can store synchronized
channel data on the card.
Note
System access to data on SD cards is slower than access to data in main memory, so access to data or programs
on an SD card will be slower than access to the device main memory. How much slower depends the speed
of your device and the speed of the connection to the SD card — on newer, faster devices, the slower response
may hardly be noticeable, while on older, slower devices, the slower response may intolerable.
On Palm OS devices, you cannot install M-Business Client on an SD card, but you can store synchronized
channel data on the card on Palm OS 5 devices.
Caution
Use of SD cards with Palm OS devices is not yet fully supported in M-Business Anywhere version 6.7. The
initial testing that has been performed indicates basically that the feature can be used, but it is less stable
than the implementation on devices with Microsoft OSes. If you wish to try storing synchronized channel
data on an SD card on your Palm OS device, see the instructions provided in the AvantGo FAQ topic linked
below:

Installing M-Business Client on a secure digital (SD) card

When you install M-Business Client, if the installer detects an SD card on your device, you will be prompted
to install on the card vs. the device main memory.
Caution
When M-Business Client is installed on an SD card, M-Business Client can freeze up and become unusable
if the SD card is removed and replaced — a soft reset is required to recover from this situation.
Note
If you choose to install M-Business Client on your SD card, all channel data synchronized from servers will
also have to be stored there. If you choose to install M-Business Client on your device main memory, you
can then choose to store synchronized channel data on either the SD card or in main memory.
