Final note (I hope) from me on this subject:

I'm giving up on it.

I found a card that works, I found a way to get the music onto the
card.  I was able to get the music to play via the Treo into my car
stereo, but here is the final killer:

It kills the usefulness of the Treo as a phone when doing this.  At
least, it does so when using a GSM Treo.

The problem is the "GSM Noise" through nearby speakers that happens
when a GSM phone is actively communicating, like when I'm using the
phone...  Plus plugging something into the headset jack disables the
use of a BT headset.  And it's just not feasible to unplug the jack
when a call comes in and then re-plug back in when the call is over.

If this were a CDMA unit, I could use Seidio's 2-in-1 hybrid connector,
which has a microphone in the cord and just use my car stereo as the
hands-free speaker.  But with a GSM phone, I can't hear anything over
the noise.

It's not a complete loss.  For one thing, now I know.  If I ever switch
back to Verizon Wireless, I can try again.  Meanwhile, the 16G Class 6
card works wonders in my camera, it appears to be able to keep up with
a prolonged burst, unlike my other cards so I'm keeping it.
