I was looking for a biger XD card for my oly, because I always fill up my 128 card way to fast, and I saw this. It's a complete steal. I'm just hoping that it's not a site error made by BH.

Good find, but beware of cheap cards!
I bought a cheap 512 card made by PQI, and it is slow at writing, and crashes my 10D when i try and read the images. JPEG or RAW.

as far as I'm aware, XD cards are pretty uniform from one manufacturer to another ( olympus, fugi, lexar,and sandisk are the only makers) plus, the other card I've been using is an olympus, and works fine.

Originally all xD Picture Cards were made by Toshiba and sold as either Fuji or Olympus. Supposedly only the Olympus branded cards could take advantage of the panoramic feature in Oly cams, but I'm not sure that the first generation of Fuji cards were not also capable. There was a conflict of interest between xD and the Secure Digital format developed by Toshiba so Fuji and Oly got SanDisk to start making xD. I think xD and SD are the same technology packaged differently.
