Post Low Phone Memory

I have only recently got my htc tatto and already my phone memory is very low only 32mb, i have also got an sd card with 7gb free. Are the apps that i have downloaded go on my phone memory, if so how do save them to my sd card?
Also any other tips to save the memory?

The achilles heel of the current Android system. Most androids 2.1 and before store to the phone memory and you have no choice however options are available.
In order to store to SD card, you will need to either root your phone (See how to's all over the net) or alternatively wait for 2.2 "Froyo" to hit your handset. (again, info regarding Froyo is all over the net)
One more slight downside.... many of the apps won't work from the SD card unless they have been updated to do so, so you may find many of your apps "greyed" out and you'll be unable to shuffle them across.
Give it a few more months and all will be sweet again, we are in a transitional period Just as it settles, it'll be time for "Gingerbread" 3.0

After installing a custom 2.1 rom on my tattoo, i've been very satisfied. Its fast, much advanced that 1.6 and it leaves wayyyyy too much space on tattoo's otherwise tiny internal memory!
