Question 8900 Device Memory ??

Question:

When I plug my Bold into my computer Windows Explorer shows two entries: 1 for the Media Card and another for the Device Memory.

The same is not true for my 8900. When I plug it in to my computer Explorer only shows an entry for the media card.

I have Mass Storage Mode set to Always.

I can access the device memory through Media Manager (ick... slow).

Any suggestions?

I've noticed this also on the Bold, which is strange. I was never able to see my device memory on the PC from any of my other Blackberry's, but I can with the Bold.

Maybe it's just a Bold thing?

Edit: Question. Does your 8900 have separate entries (in the memory settings) for DEVICE memory and APPLICATION memory, or is it all lumped under one?

I believe this happens with the Bold because of the increased size of On Board Memory 1gb...
