HTC Hero Sprint

I am thinking about this phone as an upgrade for my wife's centro. I am certain the difference will be night and day. One of the items I read in the reviews stated that the Hero cannot download apps to the SD Card memory.

The memory is listed at 288mb. What happens when you download too many apps? Seems like you are fairly limited with this if 288mb is all you can utilize for downloads. Seems like it would fill up fast?
 
If its like any other Android phone it will give you a message when your memory is getting low.
And you are not limited to 288 megs for all downloads. You are limited to installed apps being only in that 288 meg space. Pictures and videos and such can go on your external memory.
Truthfully, most apps are very small. Its not like Windows based applications that take up a hundred megs of hard drive when they really only needed 20. Most Android apps are well under a meg. And by the time you get close to filling up your 288 megs, you will probably realize there are plenty of apps you dont like and can delete.
My advice if you are paranoid is: Keep an eye on the required space before you download an app. I have not yet heard of any ridiculously huge apps floating around, but I also havent been listening.

Mr. Lickens,

You have changed your avatar.
 
We are in protest about something.
I dont know what it is, but I am protesting it. I think the idea is to have everyone be the black dude until they switch to vBulletin for the forums.
