Ya gotta do the brainwipe. Memory gets fragmented and deleting still leaves a
bit of unused space that really adds up over time, especially if you make and
delete a lot of data like I do by downloading 100+ messages a day and deleting
the majority. It's been a while since I touched an MP100, but I think you push
in the reset button, while holding the button in, hold down the power switch,
keep both pressed down, release the reset button, then release the power
button. Should ask you if you want to delete everything. Choose yes IF THIS
IS WHAT YOU REALLY WANT TO DO! Helps if you have a backup just in case. Make
sure you take out your memory card just in case, although it shouldn't touch
it.

good luck
