Reclaim some of the internal memory
 
Browsing around on my N810 I have identified a number of items that you can safely delete on your OS2008 to reclaim 10-20 MB of space:

/home/user/MyDocs/.documents
-contains a subfolder with the Handbooks in various languages
-contains a file osso_software_copyright.pdf

/home/user/MyDocs/.images
-contains the default images for the "Images" application (especially the Pine_forrest.jpg - which Nokia might have forgotten to resize when putting it into the firmware... it is 3 MB, at 1600x960 pix, while all other images are 800x480 at 300-400 kB)

/home/user/MyDocs/.sounds
-contains the promo music

/home/user/MyDocs/.videos
-contains the promo videos

(If you use the File Manager to do this, just select your device name, then browse through the localized subfolders such as "Documents")

Yup, this goes for ANY internet tablet. The OS's always come with a bunch of crap (a song or two, pictures, those .pdf's, etc.)

What about all the localised sounds for the mapping app?

There are maps in there you may not use, some are 100gb

They must use a really good method for compressing the 100gb files :D

Maybe he's got one of those N900i's with the terabyte internal :)

Of course! Those were announced at CES, right?

Thank you, but the thread title seems misleading because these files are stored on the 256MB Device Memory, not the 2GB Internal "card".

You're correct. Mea culpa - Looks like I've troubles adopting to the new concept of "internal" memory on the N810!

This thread is now to be read as "Reclaim some of the internal memory" :D

Well the two new music videos are stored into the internal 2Gb "card" for a total size of more than 40Mb :p

EDIT: added the size :D
