Wife's first PDA- STABILITY STABILITY STABILITY!!

I have a touch pro and three other ppc's before that, so I am well aware of the pros and cons of these things. My wife on the other hand, currently has a LG Rumor, which not being winmo, doesn't ever freeze or act stupid. She has agreed to try out an 800w to support my latest geek project, calendar syncing with funambol/scheduleworld/etc. Sprint disables the syncing ability of non-pdas, but we're on sero so not going anywhere. Only choice is WM.

So to my question, what tweaks would 800w users suggest to keep things running as smoothly as possible? She will not likely use it for much more than the built in pda features and email/texting, so no need for fancy browsers/today plugins/etc. I am working on gmail imap, and have already seen it freeze once, but that may have just been because I am still massaging things. All my tweaking thus far has been done over wifi, haven't put it on sprint yet.

I have applied the usb/charging fix, and I thought of using memmaid or something to clean things up and reboot it nightly, and might need psshutxp or something in case of a freeze. The first time she has to take the battery out to reset will be the last. My main goal is to get a stable phone/email/calendar device, all ideas welcome!
