I think that I answered my own question. The "extensions" stored on the
internal card (in my case, the NIE, NIE setup & the irda HP printer fix)
all registered as taking up space when I looked in the "internal" + "all
icons" Overview. I removed the NIE and NIE setup icons and then AVI's
backdrop shot up to 100k. I'm sure that AVI's backdrop uses some internal
memory as well, so I'm thinking that I'm just going to uninstall that too
so I can free up space to put the NIE back on.

I guess that this is why the 2100's are in such demand, huh? :)
