why / how can the device read something it can't write? Guess it
works out for us, but that's a tad either off or lame, perhaps both.
My guess is the File Manager application is simply hard wired to format SD
cards with the FAT16 file system - hence the 2GB support limit stated by Nokia
for the N800.
The device itself can probably read FAT12, FAT16 and FAT32 fle systems as this
support is pretty standard in Linux - they may even be standard kernel
module(s) as so many storage devices use FAT.
So, it's not a limitation of the OS - just a slightly brain dead File Manager
application (specifically: the Format option!)
