It is a strange problem, as some SanDisk cards work fine out of the box, and others don't.
One of the issues is that the formatting feature of the Axim is not accessable directly, requiring after-market software to accomplish this simple task. Formatting with the PC may not always work.

My first SanDisk 256 SD card has worked perfectly for six months now, but the second one I got would not write or read files properly until I did a format with a third party file explorer on the Axim.
During this process, the Ax never said the card needed format.

It's funny hearing advice from users to try formatting a card in a digital camera if one is available ... instead of using the pocket pc.
Why is this function missing from the ppc?
