I agree - I have not fallen that far but it is odd that it has twice the free memory as my pearl and I guess I only have about twice the free memory - 34 mb.
i have been watching the memory on my storm closely as well currently 34 xxx xxx, i have been closing apps after im done using them, due to my working on WE 8830 and losing sms messages and call logs when the memory on the unit was extremely low. I hope they addressed that issue on the storm....
