In case you were curious, here's a comparison of flashcards specifically from the vantage point of digital photography

it doesn't really speak to the reliability of the cards however. I have a Ridata 512MB card and a 320MB Dane-Elec card. The Ridata has been reliable for the half-year or so I have owned it. The dane-elec is actually a replacement for one that mysteriously died on me, but it has a lifetime warranty and was quickly replaced under warranty. Both also appear reasonably responsive / speedy.

for price charts that provide a relative sense of how much CF media costs. The deals shown on it aren't always the best though, sometimes there's coupons available from online retailers and rebates that when used in tandem, provide really great deals.
