Wow, I never heard about 1.6. According to here:

http://2.4gigahertz.com/downloads/downloads.html

it was released July 10, 2008. I wonder why my 12FG came with 1.3 then, which I bought around Christmas.

Is there a list of new features and changes in 1.6? The downloads page only has changes new to 1.3.

Thanks,
Daniel

If you re-format the card on your computer it should erase anything on the card.

What you would need to do is to reformat your card on your PC. This will wipe out anything that is on it. Then, if you download the File System Utility you can check to make sure that it is blank.
Once you install the new update, you can use the File System Utility to make sure that it was downloaded and see that it is listed as "Update".
