How should an applet that retrieves information from Internet cache things ?
Unless I've interpreted the code incorrectly it seems like album covers are cached in memory and not persistently. Is this the way to do it or is there a standard way to cache images I retrieve from Internet persistently on Controller/Touch/Radio ?

You probably want to use the imageproxy service on SN. It will cache as well as resize for you with much higher quality than you get with SDL. On-device caching is probably something we will want to look at in the Touch timeframe.
