My iPhone has a black hole

i have an 8gb
iPhone, the problem im having is this.....
In iTunes my drive space is broken down like this:
Audio: 2.54gb
Video: 692.9mb
Photos: 5.5mb
Other: 2.49gb
Free Space: 1.58gb
Now what i dont understand is what is using up the 'Other' 2.49gb, My iPhone is unlocked (Jailbroken) and i have a few custom app's but the only one taking up any significant space is a Snes emulator w/ roms but that only takes up around 40 - 50mb, im absolutely baffled what is using this 2.49gb and believe its got to be an error because i simply have not put anything on the iPhone of anywhere near that size.
Im not familiar with the OS X / iPhone directory structure and cannot find anything that could be causing this, i do not want to have to format my phone to correct this as its too much hassle, im wondering if this is a known issue (possibly database error??) with the new generation of iPhones or iPod Touchs, a quick search revealed nothing.
Cheers, Mal
