        You can find that info in the review by GSMArena itself.
        Out of the 2GB of onboard memory, 1GB goes for BADA, 550MB goes for messaging and the user gets only 390MB. Here is the link. Scroll to the last para..

            Btw I absolutely hate Samsung for not promoting this beauty right !! Atleast here in India.

            Everywhere I see, its always Galaxy S advertisements. They just show wave right in the end, and even then Galaxy is in the centre of the screen and wave is at the extreme left. It is very easy to miss in those advertisements.

            Sigh !! Wake up Samsung !!
