"Quite stable", should have been read as: "compared to PalmOS", and "taking into consideration we still are playing around with a beta version".

Soft resets due to DBcache deprivation is a very common experience in PalmOS (which is none-beta after all these years). Sometimes you lose data base integrity in this case (happened to me with a SmartListToGo data base), sometimes you lose your preferences, sometimes you get strange behaviour due to corruption of some system resources. Warm reset, or even hard reset may become necessary. This is PalmOS. NVFS made your RAM non volatile, but lead to the big big DBcache memory management problem, which until now is not solved and most likely never will get solved.

GVM has a volatile RAM and loses any RAM content just as any other non-PDA computer system. Be prepared, keep your data on SD card, keep a backup copy (or a couple of backup copys) of your system on SD card, and always consider Muphy's law. SD card access on NIT has formula 1 speed, compared to PalmOS 50cc city scooter velocity. A complete backup is done in some seconds, compared to some minutes on my LifeDrive. "Getting restored" is done in a wink.

In just those few weeks I am using my NIT GVM, it almost has become a complete replacement for my LifeDrive. All the important apps are usable, and the SD card handling is a delight. If the next version is able to solve the alarm sound deficit, it will be the complete PalmOS replacement in my case.
