Size limit issues

The most important issues you are likely to face in designing your channel site involve size limitations. There are basically three types of size limitations for an M-Business channel:

  • M-Business Sync Server limits – restrictions on the maximum size of any individual graphic. See M-Business Sync Server limits.

  • Your channel's Maximum Channel Size limit – the upper limit you set for your M-Business Sync Server to download from your channel in a synchronization. See Your channel's Channel Size Limit.

  • User limitations – users' resistance to subscribing to a channel that is too large for limited mobile device memory and 2MB account limit. See User limitations.

Basically, you could get around your M-Business Sync Server's limitations by simply increasing the Maximum Channel Size setting until all your pages fit. But your users will be very unhappy if it takes too long to synchronize your channel.
