Thanks but I think I might have a better explanation of the problem.
I am the original owner but the instrucion manual is very limited.
So, clicking around I see that the tablet Device memory has only 1.05 MB available... total is about 249.5MB .... Yet nothing is running or open... not even the Email program.

I located two features: "Restore original settings" and "Clear Device"....
I then ran both of them twice.... Only then set up Wifi connection
Yet the memory is still "full"????

I empted the Email box of all emails. It still will not send. It keeps telling me... not enough memory!!!

There are no visible message in the in-box
EXCEPT
in the "Account" -- of the email window...
EVEN THOUGH ALL MESSAGES HAVE BEEN DELETED...it says

POP account: account
Messages: 567
Folders: 1
Last Update: 10:16:05
----...
Where is it getting the goofy idea there are 567 messages..
yet all are deleted from my email in the tablet?
Is that 567 number goofying up my N810... I do not see how since I do not have access to them?

ALSO....I DID A RESTORE TWiCe AND CLEAR DEVICE twice????

Can anyone narrow down the issue???????

Ok, deep breath here. Roughly speaking, the answer is "yes". If you would like a more precise answer to that question, please do take a few minutes and peruse the "updating the firmware" wiki:

http://wiki.maemo.org/Updating_the_firmware

This page will go into much more detail about exactly what the "firmware" consists of (for the N810 as well as for other Nokia tablets).



In short, you feed it into a "Software Updater" or "Flasher" program. The wiki above provides more information about this process, although you will need to skip over the parts that refer only to the N900...



What it contains is, essentially, what you are looking for: the code needed to reset the tablet to its initial state.



Yes. Hopefully, you'll be able to find it on skeiron.org, just like the .bin file. (I still can't seem to get through to skeiron.org myself). I think in one of your threads you mentioned that you have a Windows XP machine, so you'll probably want to get something called the "Software Update Wizard". Sorry I can't help you find it at the moment, as I can't see what is actually in the skeiron.org collection.
