Now the Windows Mobile 5 uses internal flash memory like a hard drive - how it prevents data loss even after a total loss of power - it occurs to me that it now becomes possible for the internal flash storage to become fragmented over time, possibly severely after a long period of file deletions and new additions.

I know that Windows Mobile 5 doesn't come with its own defragmenter tool, and I also know that there are several tools to defragment CF or SD cards (that work quite well). What I can't seem to determine is whether there is a companion tool available that will do the same function on the internal flash storage of the Axim. I have searched this forum and also the web and all I can find are things Like MemMaid that are designed work on the external flash storage.

Does anyone know about a Defragmenter applet for the internal flash storage of the Axim?
