Memory diagnostic utility?

Does anyone know a utility for testing the memory on a PalmOS handheld? Lately, I've been getting intermittent "MemoryMgr.c: Free Handle" errors on my Zire 72. I think it's dying.

TeamMover has something called a "system memory test" but I don't know if it addresses hardware or software issues with memory. Alos, (this is very old) maybe this will lead you to something useful and more modern... http://www.epinions.com/cmd-review-4...39711BE0-prod1

Of course you might be able to create your own faster than getting help elsewhere! There are lots of places like http://www.memtest86.com/ that have source code and algorithms for memory testing on other platforms.

Last thought is that maybe developer forums or Palm/PalmSource support can provide something. Clearly, Palm and PalmSource have something laying around, it's just a matter of whether or not they would share it.

Good luck!

Any chance you are running Docs to Go 6.000? Upgrade to 6.008.
