How 'bout a script that ejects it when the machine crashes? Or prior to
startup after a forced reboot (if that can possibly be). My 2400 has the MCE
USB upgrade. IE 5.0 still crashes unpredictably. When that happens, I often
forget to reach for the paper clip prior to the 3 finger salute reboot; and
then the machine freezes again on startup cuz the card's still inserted.

Meantime, guess I'll go get those updated extensions and some memory
pills...
