No problem here, the new firmware has worked fine, what is killing the card? Wrong voltage or what?

Its possible ...
Palm have made a bug in the first release of the Tungsten E where the card can be killed. And it s patched with a software update.

I just read that some people have some problems with some cards.
There is no proof at all that it is related to the firmware upgrade, just rumours and/or personal beliefs. And even if for some reason the N800 does clutter a filesystem (remember: this is unreliable VFAT), you just reformat and have it working again. The N800 does not physically kill a SD card.

N770-Freak - have you attempted to re-partition one of your "dead" cards with sfdisk on the N800 itself, or Ubuntu?

i havent updated yet, but was planning on it today. should i hold off until further notice?

yes... that was the first thing I tried. But the card itself isn't even recognized.
dmesg in N800 just says (short form): cover is closed, setting voltage 3300 mV ... 2800 mV ... 0 mV
and there is no device created in /dev !
No chance to reformat or repartition such a card that doesn't exist in the OS.
Same with ubuntu... cardreader was recognized, sdhc card not.
Like there were no card in the reader. Absolutely dead.
If you or someone else has further ideas how I should test this card, please write down a post. It cannot become more badly
