About the new PIM's

1) How are the graphical handwritings stored? As seperate pictures that can be extracted using the desktop?

2) How large (kB) is a picture at 640x480 in the Clie approximately?

3) Is it possible to export pictures as jpg to an expansion card?

4) What happens if a picture/voice memo is deleted, does the PIM warn that it is use in calendar?

5) Is there a way to import picture in the internal db, using the desktop f.i.

Thanks.

6) Will it be possible to use old-style PIM-apps, i.e. do the "old"-databases still exist (The new PIM combines some databases to create the new look-and-feel)?

Yes, in fact, the original versions of the PIM apps are there in addition to the DBs.

7) The specs say there is 32 Mb RAM. How much dynamic RAM is there? Is this part of the 32 MB or is it extra (included in the CPU for instance)?

it's "full service" 32 Mb DRAM... no MB used by the Clié like in the NX or the UX

Ok, but for some apps (like netfront) it is important to have lots of dynamic RAM, how much does the TH55 have?

What about the dynamic heap/stack/thingy?

One problem with early Tungstens is that their heap/stack/thingy was pretty low, and things like Chrilith's awesome ScummVM didn't work properly on them...
