I am normally very very careful about this.
The original wiping occured because I didn't want the cybook switched on while recharging and so I disconnected it. Unfortunately it really had 0 juice left and died after being disconnected.
The SD card issue appears to be a "feature" of my version of linux (xubuntu 8.04) which is that it doesn't seem to properly flush the write cache on my even when I do the remove safely option when using the built in SD slot on my laptop. Now I know and so I can work around this.
