If you run out of memory or decide that you no longer need an application you
installed, you can remove applications from your handheld or from an expansion
card. From your handheld, you can remove only add-on applications, patches, and
extensions that you install; you cannot remove the applications that reside in the
operating system of your handheld.
To remove an add-on application:
1.
Tap the Home icon .
2.
Tap the Menu icon .

to delete applications from a card, the card must be seated in the expansion
card slot.

Tap Yes, and then tap Done.

information manager (PIM), you need to have Palm Desktop software installed.
