Today, SanDisk also announced upcoming 2-4Gb CF cards to be available very soon.

And Sandisk's pricing is only $500 for the 2 GB card and $1000 for the 4 GB card.

Cool! But how do Sandisk cards compare to Lexar(Pro versions)in reliability?  

I hope the Digital Wallet type storage units(Delkin, Nixvue)will accept the new, much higher capacity cards.

As long as the reader supports the FAT32 file system, you should be fine.

I'll have to check on that.

For that price, you could possibly buy a 2nd 1Ds body.    

Lexar 2Gb & 4Gb CF cards will be available soon for less.
See my earlier message in this forum.
