Sorry if this is a repeat, but every try to search for "other?" Just interested in how big your "Other" file is. I have Navigon, so perhaps the maps show up as "other." My "other" shows up as 5.5 GB when I am connected to iTunes.

Navigon maps show up as App data, not Other. Basically, if the data is part of an Application or is assessable by an App Store app, it's App data. The only exception is stuff in the Camera Roll. That shows up as Other. My other is about 10.4GB. Of couse, I know what comprises most of that and I clean it up regularly.
