I would really like to know this as well.

S2 had a 2gb partition for apps. 11-12 gb for user data.

I wish Android didn't need separate partition for apps. If the device advertise 16 gb of data, give us 16gb of data to use for anything. I find that ridiculous.

I hope they got rid of the partition for apps. If not, I hope they increase the space limit.

I too hope the SIII have one partition, but looking at SII and Note running ICS, I don't think it is likely.

P.S. HTC One X (ICS) also have 2GB for apps and 25GB for user storage.
Current mobile devices: ipad 3 3G; Nexus 10; Nexus 4; Xperia Z

Most new ICS devices only have one partition, the only downside to this is they can't use UMS, only MTP, yes there are mods but well, there mods
