All this skirts around the fundamental issue that it was damn stupid of Nokia to create a fixed flash card in the first place. Flash really doesn't exactly have a very good reputation for long term reliability, particularly if you are writing data to it frequently (ie a swap file). With a removeable card if something goes bad and all the Linux-foo in the world can't fix it, I can throw it out and slap another one in for $30. If the internal, soldered flash really goes bad, you are going to have to send it back to Nokia for repairs (assuming it is still under warranty). Just do a quick search of this message board to reveal how excruciating an experience that has been for most people.
