the only reason i asked is when i would have the active sync, there would be a folder name internal storage, now i got a storage card, but i just assumed that specific folder held the a specific amount of storage and that the cabs i was installing should be on the actual device as oppossed to the storage card.

u store the cabs on the card but install to the device its that simple, all those apps will now have sys folder in "program files" on your device....

tons of things can stay completely on the card though.. i only install apps on device that have to do with the device(ie dialers, file explorers, web browsers, tweaks, camera things, gps stuff, s2u2, things like that... like all my games, funny little party apps, etc stay completely on my card

"installing ... cab files" can mean different things to different people.

It sounds as if you're actually "installing" via ActiveSync, not just copying .cab files from your computer to your phone. If that's the case, you will usually want to install to the device and not to the SD card (one of which should have come with your phone).

For most of us, "installing cabs" is likely to mean copying them to a folder on the SD card then running them from there and installing the program to the device. The reason many of leave the .cab files on the card is because we're flashing junkies and use an automated process or even old-fashioned manual tapping to reinstall programs after flashing a new ROM.
