Hi all. In addendum to my question about my flash RAM card freezing
my 2100 upon package activation, I'm wondering how durable linear
flash cards are. I think I read somewhere once that they have a
relatively limited number of read/write cycles; I suppose mine may
have reached its limit.

Anyone know of any utilities (either Newton or MacOS) to check the
integrity of a flash card?

Thanks!
