You can't fill it up with apps. Most of them will go into rootfs and home (2GB), unless you do some hacking. Or if you use some apps that utilize libraries, like dictionaries and stuff.

Anyway, since you're looking for "must have" apps, check this thread out.

I just got a refund on my ones.
Test it with H2testW 1.4 straight away before using it.
If it's a fake, get your money back. If its real, good for you.
Can I ask what Class (1,2,4,6) it is? How much did it cost?

I would fill it up with just emulator ROMs, it should be just enough for everything worthwhile from all consoles (Amiga->GBA). I would use the internal memory for Maemo Apps, Movies, Music and other ROMS (a few PSX and N64).
At least that's what I'm planning on my newly acquired SGS.

I don't know what he/she bought, but I'm guessing it's a class 2.. :)

Get them from wherever you normally get movies! It will play most common file types. AVI etc.

wait a second.... am i understanding this thread correctly as that of us having the ability to put in a 32gb mem card? if so how is that possible as the phone is supposed to only be capped at 16gb?

Re: just got my 32gb microsdhc
 
The SDHC standard supports cards upto 32GB. I don't see why the N900 should NOT accept it.

Re: just got my 32gb microsdhc
 
for some reason, i downgrade to 16GB, coz the 32GB (yes its genuine) has some "read only" issues.

It's not capped at 16gb, it's just that was the max capacity micro sd when the phone was launched. So it's advertised at 16gb.

Been here before with the then new 16Gig cards came out. The N900, like any other device that takes microSD cards will take a 32Gig one. 32Gig is, however the largest a microSD card can be.

Not at all. It was advertised 16Gb because at product launch 32Gb microSDHC products were not available. First were, I believe, released in March this year. I seem to recall a similar (non) limitation with the N95, which was originally advertised as only supporting a 2Gb microSD, but quite happily worked with 8Gb microSD when they were released (and with 16Gb when that arrived; I'd guess it would probably work with 32Gb as well)
