I have NV backup in use on a Palm Treo 755p. I sync it with a G4 running OS 10.5.6.
Like lots of people running a Treo, a tend to run out of space, despite deleting my email all the time. How can I save more of my data onto the expansion card? Is this done with NV Backup, or by some other means?

NVB is a backup app and will not save your data to the card instead of the RAM. Most apps you can just put on your card and run from there. Some apps require some fiddling, which is what an app like PowerRun does. PR checks an app and moves all relevant files from RAM to the card in a separate directory (Palm/programs/powerrun/<appname>), then puts a shortcut to the app in RAM. Note that you don't need a shortcut if you have a third party launcher that checks you whole card for apps (or at least the directories you choose). Palm will see any app in the palm/launcher directory, but you don't want to put everything there - too confusing.
