I'm hoping there is someone out there that can help me. I'm a music teacher and i want to use my Palm E2 as a convenient way to play music for demonstrations for my young students. I bought a 2GB Sandisk SD card to hold all the music (all info I read so far said that all SD cards were compatible with the E2). I loaded the card and it tells me "card not inserted". After sufing the web, I found that I have to format the card. But it is not letting me format the card. So, how do I get my E2 to read the card and subsequently format the card? From what I read, I have to format it with the Palm OS and not Windows or i'll have problems. Do I have to get a USB Card Reader to connect to PC to format it that way? Or is there something like a driver I can download to my Palm that will enable it to read the card?
I sincerely appreciate all the help I can get on this! Thanks and God bless!

first u have 2 do is format the SD CARD (with windows no problem, but do it with FAT or FAT16, because some E2 can't read FAT32); then u put the SD into PALM device and finish :). 4 any comments, e-mail me.
