I am thinking an (easy) way to do "categories for card".

One possibility is to support sub-folder in /Palm/Launcher/, e.g.

/Palm/Launcher/Games/
/Palm/Launcher/Utilties/
.. etc

but that will not be compatible with default launcher.

Otherwise, I have to set up another table (+ configuration screen) to assign card apps into categories. That'd take some development time.

Thanks

Even if they were to be stored in a separate pdb only accessible to Treo Launcher but treated the same as those stored in the normal categories db, I'd really love that ability. Because then I could offload all my favorite apps to card and have tons of onboard space which right now is at a premium. (I almost always have less than 5 megs available)
