I have used an older version of ?Eraser? with great success on various types of 
media.  I will try the new version tonight.

"Eraser is a secure data removal tool for Windows. It completely removes 
sensitive data from your hard drive by overwriting it several times with 
carefully selected patterns. "

Find it at http://sourceforge.net/projects/eraser/

I have not had much experience with erasing PDAs.  Some devices have a 
"hard-reset" option.  Here is an article I found.  Hope it helps.

Selling It"
