Sorry for the duplicate post, but I just anwered that in another thread:

-Move as many application to the SD card as you can. Go in parameter, apps, manage apps, if my memory is right.
-Delete all updates that you don't really need. I don't use twitter, so I removed it. I then removed facebook updates. I need my phone to work as a phone&sms (first), then as an agenda, contact manager, radio, alarm clock, and camera. The rest, it's a bonus if there is memory left.
-Root your phone and remove apps that are build-in but you don't use. It's long, difficult, error prone, but I think I saved a few MB doing that.
