[Q] Internal Memory and Storage? 2,8,16G ?

---

I've been prowling websites, SE's included and I find contradictions on the amount of memory - internally and the amount of the internal storage (not microSD) in the X10.

Most sites seem to suggest that there is 1GB of RAM memory. The OS/Firmware takes up 384-400mb ROM.

There are sellers who say that the X10 has 8 or 16GB of internal storage. There are others that say it's only 2GB. I think that a lot of sites are confusing the microSD with internal storage. Rogers site seems to suggest 8GB internal storage and ATT says 2GB.

The Samsung Galaxy S seems to come with 16GB storage and a 8GB card at ATT.
The X10 they are selling seems to be with 2GB storage and 2GB sd card. (SonyStyle is selling the X10 with a 8GB card incl.)

Could someone clarify this? Is it just confusion with the SD card or did ATT order up the X10 with less internal storage than the rest of the world, guarantee that 'geeks' wouldn't be as interested....

From what I've seen they're all the exact same hardware wise, and the internal memory is the same. Was supposedly 1gb internal memory in the phone, but not sure if it's actually true, or if 1.6 limits available system ram.

The x10 from Rogers in Canada comes with 16GB card installed. (They did a few months ago anyway)

1GB ROM (internal mem)
384MB RAM (used when phone is on for programs and tasks)
"practically" unlimited Storage (mem card)

I don't understand the 'practically unlimited' part. Isn't one of the reasons that people want Eclair/Froyo the ability to store apps on the memory card rather than the internal memory? And the better message auto-management?

"practically" unlimited storage was regarding size of memory card you can use in your device, which as of now can be max. 32 GB.
That´s 3rd point..first is internal memory (ROM), second is operating memory (RAM) and finally third is external memory (MicroSD card)
