Otter · 09-25-2010, 11:00 AM

I might be remembering this incorrectly, but I could swear a long while back there were some posts suggesting that on the old 500's and 505's that it was best to leave about 40% of the internal memory free on those devices. On my 256meg 505 that was no big deal, but I was wondering if the same rule of thumb applied for the new 2gig 650's? That's a lot of space to leave free....anyone have any thoughts on how much to leave free before having to store on external memory?

Many thanks!
