sell whatever card you have and buy a simpletech or some other card made in japan. these cards are not 100% perfect, but they are close to 99% perfect. there is no reason to be hobbled by the SD problem.
More fees to get my Axim working ? I'm sorry, but :
- the only listed limitation on the official specs regarding SD cards is "no SDIO" (I can live with that)
- the problem lies within Dell, as many other hardware sellers issued a firmware fix when they encountered a similar problem
- Dell doesn't provide a list of "certified to work" brands of SD cards (heck, they even sell non-working SD cards to their own customers, from what I've seen in various forums)
- The brand of card I bought works well in other devices

If Dell provides me with an unreliable device not performing according to their own specs, then, as a customer, I've every right to be furious, and it's not my part of the deal to cover their mistakes.
