I can't believe that a phone like this would have such limited memory for apps. I hope that the app you are talking about is released soon. Otherwise the amount of apps in the app store does not matter because you can't load them.
I know i'm ranting but this is one of my grips on my storm.
I don't get it, why wouldn't you want them to be installed to the SD card? Are they afraid of piracy? Like say you save it, put it in a friends phone and transfer it to their phone and than take your card back? If so I guess that makes perfect sense. If that's the case why not just INSTALL that SD card IN the phone and have it so you can't even access it unless you take your phone apart?
It has the same app memory as the storm2 BUT the 256 mb is dedicated to apps only. So in the storm you look at memory and it says about 128mb but when you look at the droid memory it should read 256 mb app memory. Big difference.
