I have a 16GB iPad for my son. We have realized it to be nothing more than a nuisance when it comes to storage. If someone can explain this to me that would be great. It seems he can barely have but a movie and 4 or 5 apps. Complete waste of my money.
I dont think this should fill up your 16 GB. A bit more than 10 GB should be free. What problems are you experiencing?

Reset - press & hold the 'Power' and 'Home' buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears - this may take a longer time, so have patience; the iPad will 're-boot' - NOTE that this maneuver will NOT alter your apps, files, or settings.
I just reset and took another screenshot. Still the same. Check the photo I attached.
Mind you, I also have no photos, and it says I have 470 something in MBs used in this category. No idea why I can't have anymore than 5 or so apps and 1 movie.
If your iPad is synced to a computer I would consider syncing with that computer to see if that changes the available capacity, it certainly worked for me recently in increasing the available space (I think I may have actually sync'd it twice in succession).
