"System storage", which appears to be the space for APKs and local files, is probably 128MB. I have 115MB free right now, with not much in the way of apps. > i.e. Should large data files be downloaded to /storage? Well, more accurately, large data files should be downloaded to Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory(). The ARCHOS is not significantly different in that respect than is any other Android device. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://twitter.com/commonsguy _Android Programming Tutorials_ Version 1.0 Available! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
