Thanks
The main reason for the question is that I use the podcast app a lot in the car via the 'ipod' interface either via cable or bluetooth
When I use the phone during the day for other thing and get back in the car the podcast app has unloaded
How do you know that it's unloaded? Are you saying it works fine in the morning? I'd experiment around and see if you can resolve now. I'd force quit the app when you unplug it from the car. When you plug the app back in to the car, this will force the app to reload into ram. See if this does anything.
I'd re-post this post as a new question. The issue is your getting tizz when you reconnect your iphone to your car. It's not about how much ram you have.
