Polysaccharide vaccines & thymus-independent antigens

Polysaccharide vaccines (consisting of only polysaccharide, no protein) generate only IgM because they're thymus-independent antigens. So does this mean they do not generate memory (unless conjugated with a protein, allowing them to cause T-cell dependent activation of B-cells)?
