Because these devices put things like SD cards into "sleep mode," to save power.

You might get lucky, but this is the main reason that people with the original Touch has issues with corruption. It also happens if you turn the phone off while copying, or taking a picture, or whatever...

I had it happen 3 or 4 times, resulting in me backing up my SD card weekly.

I consider the SD card as more of a backup device. I keep everything on there, but I copy ringtones/backgrounds to my main memory, and I install all programs to the memory as well.

I don't feel like fighting with file corruption again...
