254 MB, if you're lucky. Got a new BB today on .261...out of the box, 224 MB. Not the point. It is a complaint and do you know why? Because with every new generation of hardware and OS, like a PC, you need more memory, because the OS hogs more and more each time a new OS happens...

RIM should have increased the available app memory, instead of putting a 6.2GB (referred to as 8GB) internal chip. Who needs onboard RAM? What, so I can install things in it only to lose it to device failure down the road?

That was just plain stupid...
