I don't get what your problem is, are you saying that your wife's phone
- cannot have any more apps installed
- cannot have any apps deinstalled
- runs out of memory, and then become unusable/useless?
Considering I've had several multi-MB pdfs (which will take 100s of MBs when rendered) open plus plenty of apps, I guess the system itself shouldn't use more than a few 10s of MB... didn't check yet.
On a side note, any good linux system will 'soon' have all RAM used, this is nothing to worry about (empty RAM costs as much current/power but is not useful).

You must be mistaking RAM for storage space.
You can have 10MB RAM free and the phone would still be lag free, the system uses it to cache things. I haven't heard someone not being able to install an app because there's no free RAM.

What i do not get is how only 40 MB can be free after system loads my guess would be a memory manager of sort handling the memory for programs loading.
But is so there would be no problem install/uninstall because the memory manager handles that. But it does not seem to be the case since you can run out of memory in phone.

And then It is impossible to even install and uninstall application, the only thing todo is a reset erasing everything and start all over..... again and again.
So i wonder how much memory space should a clean Marhattan occupy on the Nokias system memory, this must be something wrong should there not be at least half system memory free after booting up??????????
