How many large databases is it trying to move over at the same time?

Why did you need to use PowerRun to run Mobipocket on a NX? I put Mobipocket on the MS and all Mobipocket docs on the MS and it works just fine without Powerrun as Mobipocket is VFS aware. Am I missing something?

The reasonyou use PowerRun with MobiPocket is to store and update the MobiPocket E-News files on your MS. otherwise the e-news feature (Which is great) updates onto the RAM of the pda. Kinda sucks, and the good people at MobiPocket have told emthey are working on a fix for it. I hope.

Okay, do not use powerrun. I load everything into the /palm/launcher/ folder on the MS and it works just fine. For web clippings I forget if it will HotSync or not. For reading books it works quite well and finds them in the /Palm/Launcher/ folder.

I hope this helps some. PowerRun can drag everything into RAM at once. Besides being a memory hog, it'll take forever.
