Why? FAT16 is capable all the way up to 2GB
The 512MB of FAT32 is its minimum, not the max for FAT16

Well, when I try to load MP3's onto a 1 gig SD card, it stops at about 480
megs and gives me an error message. If I format the card in FAT32, it'll
fill to capacity with no problem. However, the Tungsten doesn't see the card
because it doesn't recognize FAT32. If I'm understanding you correctly, I
should be able to use the card's full capacity in FAT16. If that's the case,
is there something special I need to do to get to work, 'cause it's not
doing it currently. Thanks.
