If this is the case, would I be correct in assuming that by converting some of my files to modules with reversmode that the program/dll would then run in XIP, not freeing up more RAM, but opening quicker?
Sorry for all the questions, but I am STILL unable to find a good read somewhere with the whole breakdown.

from what I can tell, the reason for having a xip section, is to make it possible to handle the xip in a different way.
excerpt from MSDN:
Windows CE allows you to create multiple execute in place (XIP) regions in one single operating system (OS) image. XIP regions are areas where an application can execute code directly from read-only memory (ROM) rather than having to load it from random access memory (RAM).
With a multi-region image, you have finer control over the image layout, you can control region updates, and you can decide on a per-region basis how the OS will access that region when it pages its components at run time.
