FYI- today only. Kingston Elite Pro 133x. Just ordered mine. ;-) These cards are about average speed, roughly on par with an 8Gb Sandisk Ultra II, but it's a whole lot of space for the money.

Great catch. Just ordered mine, too. I have the 8GB version of this. It doesn't do ReadyBoost on my PC, but how many ReadyBoost cards do you really need.... |

Wow! Ordered mine too, $36.31 including ground shipping.
I paid $40 for my 4 gig (on sale!) just four months ago.
Thanks Scalvert, for sharing the info!

You can select "local pickup" as an option and avoid shipping charges. |

I saw that in this mornings ad. I may go over there and pick one up. Of course, in 6 months that will be the normal price. At least some things can be counted on to go down. |

As an aside, I noticed on Galbraith's CF tests that the Canon 50D has triple the write speed of the 40D. Yow! |

I picked up a 4Gb Kingston 133x from B&H for $39.95 with a $40 rebate a few months ago. Rebate actually arrived too which was nice - made a profit.
I use the card, but do find it noticeably slower than some of the Sandisk's that I have, but my camera is throwing data at it quite quickly.

For any SD users like myself, feeling left out, I was just looking for a new reader, and found this:
Transcend 16GB SDHC CARD (SD 2.0 SPD CLASS 6) with Compact Card Reader
$35.99 with free shipping. Crazy! I have three 4 GB cards, but if I went for one of these, I guess I would never need to change cards on a shoot. That's a good thing, unless something goes wrong with it!
There's also an 8GB model for $15.99 without the card reader.

besides the stories people have been passing about DHL service
crossing the border will add delay & cost so doesn't make it worth the trouble .. |

My card showed up this afternoon, so naturally there's an even better deal today. Try THREE Sandisk Extreme III CF cards for $0, or if you prefer, THREE 8GB versions for $20. Pretty soon we'll find them in cereal boxes. |
