If you are asking why the Axim shows something like 244MB for a 256 sd card, it's because memory manufacturers call 1000 bytes a KB while computers call 1024 bytes one (and 1048576 bytes an MB). If you do the math, you'll see it works out pretty closely.

That definitely is normal, because like formentioned, some manufacturers rate 1MB by 1000KB and some rate by 1024KB(which is supposed to be the correct way...lol). You're card is all good.
