[NTLK] Memory limits on NewtonPress ebooks

[Smith Woody]

Agreed.  The 2000 does have limited system memory but 4mg of storage  
leading to installing many packages.  Every package that is installed  
uses some memory unless it is frozen.
Until you get a 2100 try freezing everything that you aren't using.
