So when they die, they really die - no way you'd ever get in with a data recovery tool.
Maybe the last guy we mailed it to did something silly with it before returning it, but I no longer believe the "indestructibility" and the 1000's of writes claims.
& it was a play.com branded SD card, not a cheap ebay knock off.
