Hi,
Good questions...
You can use any computer to format an SD card, provided that if there is even a function to do that. Not all BrailleNotes supports this, and between mPower and Apex, separate methods exist for doing this. As for this context, you can use your Apex ! do that - formatting it on a PC would do the same thing (removing links to data), so there's really no difference. As for labels, no - it will not see it. Any SD card that the File System sees, it will just be displayed as "SD card." Under CE, you cannot use labels on a storage card (unless if I'm wrong on that), nor any drive label given to the card on the PC will be recognized by Windows CE file system driver i.e. Apex will not see it.
Cheers,
Joseph

So, to truly format an SD card,you still need to use a PC?

I wonder ... if I labeled the sd card using my PC would the Apex be able to
read the label?
