(To answer the outlook thingy; Use the standard E-Mail that is on the phone, you can find this here; Start::Messaging::Setup E-Mail)
For the SD Card:
You can download different type of app files. the most common is the
example.cab files.
To install;
Drag the file to either SD card or the device itself. Locate the file then press it. the you get:
Choose a location to install "application": *Device ___*\Storage Card.
Press install
Choose storage card to install the app on the storage card. NOTE this will free up memory on the device itself, but will not give the program as good quality as it would if you install on device.
HTC TP (1/2) is good enough storage space on to install apps. Use memory card to files (Pictures, doc., music etc....)
As for the HKEY_LOCAL...
This is what we call a registry tweak.
You'll need a registry editor for this to work.
You can find a program in our Master Application Thread;
Registry Editor v0.9 (Thanks Atomic2Mod)
Description : If you ever want to tweak your phone then most likely you will need this program.
