There are more constraints on what you can do on a Palm device than
on a regular desktop computer. Even if you're not a hardware person,
it's important to understand the limitations of the device, so that
your applications remain responsive and don't drain the batteries
unnecessarily. This chapter presents a short overview of the hardware,
the operating system, and the memory in a Palm device. You'll also
learn how to reset your device in order to recover from a crash.
