Sprint is 32 Megs ISM and 256 To ROM and user mem. Total is 288.

Just an FYI.

IM wondering now if there is a way to bring the ISM to 32 and have an extra 32 megs of RAM?????

That would be the ultimate hack this far. Besides lllboredlll GPS of course!
That is RAM allocated for the linux based radio functionality. ISM(instrument, scientific, medical) Radio bands are basically what frequency your radio broadcasts at. Noting that VZW is allocating 64 mb to these bands would lead me to believe they are broadcasting on the higher frequency band of the CDMA spectrum. As we all know there is always a certian bit of RAM allocated directly to the radio. It's really intriguing to find out why VZW has set aside that much.
