memory hungry

Guys, run in to a potential issue for the HTC Android phones (i have a desire). The app is hugely memory hungry. I moved the app to sdcard so as to reduce its footprint. Still leaves 2.35M on internal....

And then there is the data. I just looked at it, and it was caching all the forum posts I'd looked at on internal, rather than sdcard storage. The result is that the app had grown to consuming 7M internal storage, despite being on sdcard.

I have cleared it down now, but this is something that needs fixing, otherwise it is a dead end for many usrs. Memory management on the Android is a big issue!
Thanks
IPZ
