Adding or Removing Programs
Programs added to your device at the factory are stored in ROM (read-only memory). You cannot
remove this software, and youll never accidentally lose ROM contents. ROM programs can be
updated using special installation programs with a *.xip extension. All other programs and data
files added to your device after factory installation are stored in RAM (random access memory).
You can install any program created for your device, as long as your device has enough memory.
The most popular place to find software for your device is on the Pocket PC Web site
(http://www.microsoft.com/mobile/pocketpc).
