Yes.. You can save images of all the resolutions the camera is capable of on a
single card. You can even mix in movies if the camera is capable of recording
them.
Yes, deleting causes fragmentation, but this isn't an issue.
A hard drive has a head that has to be physically moved about a large platter
to access the data. Fragmentation causes exessive movement of the heads and
as a result, longer seek and write times.
CF cards are solid state. No moving parts.
