I've looked through searched threads and have not found a sure-fire solution to this issue. For the money I spent on the Pearl, I can't believe it's erasing my emails and call log. My question is: is this an issue with some, but not all of the Pearls? If that's the case, I'll just exchange the thing at Rogers. Or is it a problem with all Pearls, but just some people don't have the issue (don't use mucm memory, or have a certain OS)? I don't know anything about OS's, feeling pretty lost here actually.

Pull your battery out for 10 seconds and when it boots back up, check your memory.
When you use programs, make sure you press the menu button and then close the program. If you just press escape or the red end button, the program is still running in the background using memory. Also, make sure if you are instant messenger programs that you end the conversations when you are done. This will also free up memory.
Also, make sure you're storing all of your media on a microSD card and not on the phone itself.

If I exchange my Blackberry, is there a chance the new one won't have this "leak" issue, or do all units have this problem, and it just has to be managed?
I having the same issues and actually started a new thread becuase of it. I didn't really realize that is was a memory thing. I did take the battery out and that helped free up a ton of memory but I think that its rediculous that you have to reboot your phone and keep and eye on the memory levels just to make sure you don't loose any emails.
I do erase all my emails every five days but still I agree way to complicated. Can't they just make a damn phone that works! I did figure out how to make it a modem which is sweet.

Oh well...
I am there with you. Frustrating, but my phone performs well enough that I can handle it. I pull the battery about once a week. My memory never drops below 20 megs (or whatever you call it).
