I only have 90MB of MP3's on it and no audible books. All the ebook content is purchased ebook content e.g. I'm not stuffing it with scans, out-of-copyright content or Captain Jack Sparrow's master works.

I'm curious to see if Jeff Bezos will drop by the office with a 4GB Kindle 2 Mark II if I fill it up.
You know that only 1.4GB of the 2GBs are accessible for storage right?

So you are only using 400ish MBs at the moment. Also you can delete your books (purchased from Amazon) and redownload them at anytime.
