Memory problems
I am having major memory problems using the roScreen. My app requires me to have many images loaded from the web and the device that are used frequently. This means I have to load them in to memory...

Generally to free up graphics memory:
Release any variables referencing the bitmaps, i.e. regions and sprites:
then call SwapBuffers() or finish() if the screen is single buffered. That should free up the unloaded texture. If you are using he TextureManager, then you might also need to unload the bitmap from texture manager:
MyTexMgr.UnloadBitmap("http://myserver.com/mybitmaps/image.jpg")
