Hi, Sarah.  Yes, I seem to recall reformatting my 128 mb flash card but I 
can't remember when.  I am having similar problems that others are having 
such as the book port locking up after disconnecting it from the computer, 
the transfer software not starting after I connect the book port, deleting 
memos and getting error messages which I can't recall and so forth.
