To use the image on a larger card (512MB, for example), just "dd" to the 
larger card, use fdisk to increase the size of part3 to the remaining 
space (taking care to keep the same start sector), and then use the 
"ext2resize" command on that partition:
$ fdisk /dev/sdcard1/disc0/disc
$ ext2resize /dev/sdcard1/disc0/part3
