I would agree that it's safer to not pull the card out at certain times. I'd be most concerned right after inserting a card, when the Reader may be writing to the SD card cache file. Or also if changing the size on an sd card book (again it might be writing to the card). Or, the last case I can think of, while you are exiting a book or creating a bookmark.

My concern is the same... if it is removed while writing, it may corrupt the card. It does cause problems on other pda devices.
