Does saving to 'my storage' takes up significant space on device?

[Guest inite]

Most of the programs i saved to 'my storage' appears under 'programs'. My programs list seems to be getting bigger and bigger. Are these just shortcuts which i dont have to worry about, or should i optimally move these files to a folder under 'my storage' manually, so as to keep things under 'programs' to the minimal.

You have to know that this is windows mobile so it acts just like windows. Even if you install to my storage some software will still put something in windows or program files dir on your phone. Games for instance do that. Igo does that. And other apps do that too. So it's normal just as long as you don't fill up the space on your phone with ringtones or something (like pictures). If you do that your phone will lag.

And if you are talking about the list of programs under pgorams on your start menu you don't have to worry. Those are just shortcuts just like the ones you have in windows.

Ya, so should i be moving items like games to a folder under my storage, and create a shortcut for them instead?
