No, this isn't a "who's buried in Grant' tomb" question. Rather: How much space for apps, music, etc is available on a fresh-out-of-the-box 16GB iPad? My 64GB iPad says that its "capacity" is 58.12 GB, which suggests that almost 8GB is taken up by disk formatting and the OS. That wouldn't leave much for other stuff on a 16GB. I'm providing "pre-sales tech support" for a price-sensitive relative; any data out there? Thanks!

On iOS 5 you should expect to have about 13.75 GB for items you choose to store on any 16 GB iOS device. On iOS 4 it was slightly higher - slightly over 14 GB.
