When I download pics, themes, etc to a disk then transfer them to my T68i the file size is 3 times the size! If you look at a picture and check "Picture Info" the size is three times smaller than when I check it using "memory Status." So when it says that I have 300Kb Free memory it is actually 1/3 this amount. Anyone else notice this or is there a problem with my phone? I tried to do a search and couldn't find anything about this.

I think once the picture/theme/ringtone are sent over to the phone, it'll use its own format for storage therefore they probably increase the file size when it's stored in the phone.

This is just a simple guess.

Here's what I do. Whatever size the pic shows on your pc, multiply that by 3. That's how much memory it will take up when you transfer it to your phone.

OMG I just realised i have that same problem!
Well, it might be the conversion from true colour to 256 colour involved in the process?
