Indeed, the card number is NOT 0 for the springboard.  That will cause some
programs to fail if placed on the expansion memory.  Easily fixed, though!

I didn't look at the Visor's specs in detail, but could it be that the
additional RAM inserted in the springboard will have a cardNo != 0 ?

If so, then we may start seeing which programs are always targeting memory
card 0 and which ones use MemNumCards() <g>
