Default TurboBoost - Ram Emulator

Hey guys.
I've recently gotten a 6700 on metroPCS (upgrading from my 6600 that I couldn't get activated...) and I've put all the 6.1 goodies on it.

Any time I try to run Opera, I get out of memory errors.

With Vista, MS started doing TurboBoost - or something like that - where it would use any USB flash drive as "extended ram"

My terminology might not be right - but that should give you a basic idea of what I'm thinking...

Since the main drawback of both the 6700 and (from what I hear) the 6800 mogul is the lack of ram available, would creating something like this for use with the SD cards be possible?

I understand the drawbacks - the device would probably slow down a little - as ram is faster than the SD bandwidth...
Running programs from the SD card while using the RAM emulator would double the SD card transfer needs...

But I'm sure there are some good temporary uses for this kind of program...
Like... say... when I'm running Opera from internal storage; ;)

Any ideas?
I don't have a clue how to do this - I'm not a programmer - but I think it'd give the 6700 a whole new level of functionality.

Thanks!
Kalash
