Help Disk showing full when it should have plenty of room

Hi all,

I have a Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 3G - bought back in July and love it! However, recently, the disk has been showing as full, and although I've now deleted all music and pictures (or rather moved them to the SD card), and none of the folders on the disk show large files, there's still only 1.2 Gb space showing as free.

Can't understand it, and I've checked with "view hidden files" also, in case there were some hidden system files that were using up loads of space.

So, in summary, hardly any free space on the local disk, yet total space used is less than 1.5Gb. Any ideas?
