ABSTRACT:
A handheld device performs a data update process to synchronize locally stored data with data from another device, which may be stored in different formats. The handheld device gets the size of the data from the other device. The handheld device applies a scaling factor to the size. The handheld device compares the scaled size to the amount of free memory in the handheld device available for the data update process. The handheld device receives the update data if there is sufficient memory available. Otherwise, the handheld device does not receive the update data in order to conserve power in the handheld device. The handheld device can also perform an error routine to notify the user of the insufficient memory condition and to allow the user to make more memory available.
