PCWorld: Tips to Manage Your BlackBerry Apps

“One of the major shortcomings of Research In Motion’s (RIM) BlackBerry mobile OS is that it requires a user to store any and all “active,” or installed, third-party applications within a small section of their BlackBerry device’s internal storage memory: the application memory.
