How to sync Pocket informant in SD card

Hi, anybody knows How to sync Pocket informant v8.0 data in SD card,
because this software put the data in ROM of my pocket PC (hx4705). I
did see many programs to sync (mobsync, mighthy sync, etc.) that I see
syncronize documents or any folder in to SD card, but I don´t know if
works with Pocket informant to sync the data of this program in SD.
I don't know if I explain correctly, but thans in advance for any
answer and excuse me my poor English.
-------------
buenos días, he actualizado mi pocket informant a la version 8, y
quisiera saber si es posible que los datos de este manejador de
agenda, contactos, tareas, etc., estén en la tarjeta SD que tengo, ya
que desde que he usado el pocket informant, observo que siempre están
en la memoria ROM de la máquina, y la verdad que consume mucha memoria
este manejador de agenda.

Estuve leyendo, y veo que algunos indican otros programas en lugar del
activesync, como mobsync, mightysync, etc., pero segun lo que entendí
es para sincronizar documentos, pero no se si alguno de esos programas
también permitan definirle al pocket informant que la ubicación de sus
archivos a sincronizar debe ser en la tarjeta externa SD y no en la
memoria de la hx4705.

No sé si me expliqué correctamente ??
pero agradezco de antemano cualquier pista o ayuda al respecto.
saludos.

Pues, yo he tenido éxito en usando PI desde la tarjeta con un T-Mobile Wing.
Antes, siempre usaba PI en RAM pero como el Wing tiene tan poca memoria he
encontrado que es mejor poner el máximo posible en la tarjeta SD.

El Wing usa Windows Mobile 6, y no se si esta hace una diferencia o no, pero
no lo creo. Por lo menos, puede probarlo para ver si funciona bien para
usted con su iPAQ.

No he tenido problemas con la sincronización de mis datos usando PI de la
tarjeta.

Don't apologize for your English. It is way better than my command of any
other language. Don't know what Donald said, but Pocket Informant can't
really be made to store to the SD card. It is not really storing anything,
but rather providing greater capability to manipulate and view the standard
PIM data on the device. That data is still syncing between desktop Outlook,
and the Outlook components on the mobile device, and it is fixed within main
memory files.

Sven, I said that with my T-Mobile Wing, PI works just fine from the SD
card. I decided to put it there because of the memory constraints of the
device because someone in another group had suggested it would work and much
to my surprise, it does. However, the Wing is a WM6 device and I don't know
if it would work with the iPAQ 4700 series as I believe they are WM2003SE
devices. I do have an iPAQ hx2415 but PI runs from RAM on that device.

It may be that PI works with the Wing because of the way WM5/6 use memory
compared to earlier versions.

Unless I am mistaken, you are putting the application on the SD card. I have
no reason to think that wouldn't work. I'm just saying the 'data' PI uses,
the actual contacts, calendar items, etc. are the same items stored by the
system PIM DB(s) in main RAM. You can't change that...where the system
stores contacts and such. I gathered jago was talking about the data itself.

Gotcha! You're exactly right and it is just the application that I put on
the SD card. PI, as you stated before, is basically just an interface to the
PIM data that can not reside on the card.

Re-reading his original question in Spanish, you're right that he was asking
about the data (datos), so your response was correct.

Thanks for clearing this up!

Pocket Informant interface I just installed Pocket Informant on my AT&T 8525 running WM5. I have printed the manual and will read it; however, I am trying to figure out if it is still possible to view/use the WM Contact list or if I can only use the Informant one. In addition, in I
