Author Got an MMC card - how / where can I erase it?

I sold my old nokia phone.

I have an MMC card I want to sell but I need to erase the contents on
it.

Stupid question - but how can I do this? I now use a Sony Ericosson
k750i so what can I do... can I walk into dixons and do it there... do
mmc cards work in any computers.. if so that would be good cos I could
just stick it in and wipe it (memory sticks work like this on sony
laptops)


Thanks for any advice
