Its hard to say. Because apps are different in size. Very rarely would anyone use all the space by just downloading apps. I would say 500+

500+? Wow I didn't know it was that many. And here I was worried about running too many apps.
500 seems wayyy wayy off haha.
Figure 100 to 200 apps. Most are a half mb to a full mb
(Of coarse this ranges)

lets see i have 35 apps downloaded on my phone and still sittin 115mb so im sure alot i would say 175-225 apps possibly depending on file size of the apps of course
Does having a lot of apps installed, but not in use, slow the phone down?
well, the storm can hold about 100 apps. The tour can hold twice as much, so maybe a 200? Some apps download to the sd card (like slacker radio).
How is the answer to this question even worth your time?
Only if you run low in device memory.
as many as you want. go ahead and try it out yourself.
I think cuz he thought it was a lot less like 10-20

Yep. I was being cautious not to put too many apps but I guess it's ok.
Avg size of an app is probably less than 500kb. 190 mb total on the device. 500 kb apps would be 380 total. But I doubt there's even that many. We need not worry about space just yet :-)

No more than any other blackberry with an sd card. With the new app world I can archive all the apps to my SD card....woooohooo!
How would one go about doing that? As in archiving? Also... it says I have like 156 megs used already... I only have like 15 apps.. they're all pretty small.. would it be also the music taking up the space?
how do you actually dl apps to your sd card? i think my phone mem is already full bc when i went to dl an app last night, it gave me a msg i had less than 5mb of space left or something along those lines...but i only have like five apps on it! although i think the problem is when they transferred pics etc from my old phone they dumped they all on my bb's mem...so i'm trying to fig out how to get everything from my phone to my sd card or comp...
It will hold more than 5 apps. Plug in your phone to your computer, turn on mass storage mode. You should then be able to navigate the folders of your BB and move the pictures off of the phone memory onto your SD card.
I have probably have about 25-30 apps installed.
I have roughly 52-53 apps and still boot up around 108mb every time...granted, I shrunk my OS and all that good stuff before I installed it, currently on the 5.0.0.191 leak..
yayyy thanks! after much cursing sweat and tears last night, i finally was able to get pics off phone and onto comp!!!
now about that archiving app...which is it? i would so so love to dump my apps on my sd card!
I'm curious where this 190 Megs came from. Everything else I've seen said 250 total.
I agree with littlebigman i only have like 12 apps and i only have 90mb left
