memory question

[Sturatt]

can someone explain to me why more memory is better, when I never run out anyways? Why would having 50 mb free be better than having 15 free, until i reach the point where i have 0 free? I hope i am making sense... why is it better to have more FREE memory? I always see people talking about how the touch has more memory, but i always seem to have about 15 megs free, so does it make a difference until i actually need to use up that 15 megs?

For what you do with your device.. 15MB of free RAM might be enough for you..
But, in my standard.. that is TOTALLY unacceptable.

The whole point of wanting more free RAM is so that you NEVER/EVER have to experience the performance slow down or even crash.
And having more free RAM not only give you more buffer room for the memory leak problem.. you can also run more RAM intensive applications on your device.

I have tried several flash based applications that I really liked.. but they were just too much of memory hog, so I had no choice but uninstall them.

That 50MB of free RAM you are talking about.. will provide me a unbelievable amount of freedom for my device.
