I think a big reason the III's firmware is so small but everything else is so large is due to images. To prove this, simply create a word doc with some sample text, save it, and check the size. Now paste a picture and save it. Way bigger now, even with compression!
Every program nowadays ships with a ton of pictures, from icons to graphics, and they tend to be in less compressed formats, I've seen a lot of tiffs and pngs used, but not many jpegs.
The III doesn't have any pictures, just simple text that can be smashed to hell by a compressing algorithm.
