With Treo 650, the windows utilities that came with the phone (*) can
transfer files directly to the SD card.  It does not show up as a removable
drive, though - you have to drag and drop files to the Palm sync utility.
So it _is_ possible - if you have the tool on the host computer.

*) The CDs can be mounted on NetBSD, but you can't see any files on
   them.  No directories, no nothing.  You need a windows machine to
   access the pdf formatted Treo manual, even.  (And the Adobe pdf
   reader for Treo is a bad joke - it can't read pdf format but some
   special format produced by a conversion utility.  So you can't just
   download a pdf into your Treo over GPRS and view it - you need a
   windows machine for the conversion.  Pretty mobile.  Big sigh.)
