I am just wondering how well does the TT runs software on memory cards? Do you need Powerrun or similar

Applications run just fine from memory cards on the Tungsten. On my 64 SD card, I'm running 24 applications, including CityTime, Mapopolis, Palm Reader, Palmscape, SlideShow Commander, SheetToGo, SlideshowToGo, WordToGo, and TealMovie. I'm also storing 3 MB of maps, 15 MB of movie files, and over 110 photos averaging about 35-40Kb each for viewing on SplashPhoto. I still have 35MB available on the SD card.

So are functions included within PalmOS 5 to manage the information on the SD, or are third party utilities like McFile still needed?

I am moving applications to my memory card using Palm's resident Copy utility, and then deleting the application from my RAM after testing the application from my SD card. I use Launcher III, which identifies those applications on the SD card with a small blue symbol at the lower right of the screen icons.
