Palm T5 filesystem: anyone know some low-level specifics?

Archived from groups: comp.sys.palmtops.pilot (More info?)

Hello all, in another thread the problem of the T5's NAND flash memory
is being speculated about, I'd like to know if anyone has some hard
specifics.

In particular, due to the nature of NAND memory's limited amount of
writes, I'd like to know if the filesystem has been written to take
this into account. If not, then the FAT tables and suchlike are
likely to expire first and cause permanent failure of the filesystem.

Does anyone know if this has been taken into account, and can anyone
supply any statistics that can allow some kind of estimate of how long
the memory will remain useable?
