    I was just curious because it seems that every time something new comes out, I'm downloading it! I am counting 23 on my Berry presently, and that's after deleting a few!!

    Number of apps is almost irrelevant. What is important is to not
    allow your memory to fall below 10,xxx,xxxmb. And maybe try to
    avoid redundancy.

    Will vary with the device, more important is the amount of file free memory available to each user. I have 15 or so on my 8310 with 27-30mb of file free memory left. The more the merrier as long as the device can keep up.....

    Isn't this an indefinitely relative question? I have 20-30, but others have 5 and that's too much (like my dad). So it's relative. Voila

    Yes, but the Bold has a ton of memory to start with, and that really helps!

    Correct as AG and I stated at the same time

    This will only confuse people... Why does Trem have 4 apps and BergerKing has 30....... Its all relative to the device in question, all that matters is the file free so for any newbies reading please keep that in mind.....

    LOL you'll see a whole bunch asking why their phone has no memory after installing a few apps with the storm, I personally have 26 plus 2 Themes on my storm (.103) and have no issues other than the stupid BBM that freezed my phone randomly

    "Smart Flicks"...what the heck is THAT???? Did you ditch "YouVersion"?

    Smart Flicks is great! You can use it to control your NetFlix account, add movies to your queue and change their position. I use that all the time when I think of a movie I want to see. It's better than making a note and going home to the computer and adding it. Pyxis Mobile's Application Studio Lab: SmartFlicks: Netflix on BlackBerry

    Oh no... YV still has top billing. That list was before YouVersion came out...

    Christmas Pool is a free billiards game in the Owner's Lounge.

    Smart Flicks is great... I did ditch it though for space. I just use Netflix Mobile.
