Got one, an original series Creative Zen Vision:M 30G.  In case you
missed the start of this, the goal here is to converge the
functionality into the Treo so I'd have one less thing to carry.

If I want to pick, I still can, and what I pick will simply reduce the
available space for random.  And I like random.

I believe so, unless you go to NTFS, which I don't think is an option
on memory cards.  But I haven't dealt with formatting options in FAT
for so long, I don't remember what the default cluster sizes are.
