In fact, one of the initial reasons to strip out the DSMs was to regain that storage memory, as the first PocketPC's were very, very limited on storage and program memory, as compared to what we have available to us, today.

Considering how tiny dsms are (usually less than 2kb), it's not really going to save any real space. You'd save more space by removing one ringtone than you do by stripping dsm files.

It won't. Remove some of that bloatware from your rom, and cab install some apps to internal storage, if you need to save space.
