http://www.ewiz.com/detail.php?name=CF_8G-80X
I've never done business with ewiz.com and I have never heard of "Super Talent" products. I will see what I can dig up, and others, by all means go for it  I did find both good and bad reviews of ewiz.com, though, from epinions: http://www.epinions.com/pr-Online_Stores_Services-eWiz_com 3.5 out of 5  Super Talent's website does have a card they call the 'super digital' that is they clai is an SD w/ out the DRM stuff  But I digress...Anyway, have to run, but thought I would throw this out there just in case. Maybe somebody here knows something more. **edit** now the price is under $340

Maybe somebody here knows something more.  THat's the best price on Froogle although the description (everywhere) is very sparse. But it doesn't *seem* to be a Microdrive, and 80x is quite nice. So far there seems to be no 16GB cards on the horizon, so I would imagine the 8GB will stay above $300 for a while (solid state). But on the othe hand, better (more recognized brand names) will be in this price range probably within a year or less. Tough call since 4GB just broke under $150 for solid state. Wish I could find some user reiews. But I nice find none the less |

According to the site it is NAND flash. Of course, how they could sell theirs for a little over half of what the competition charges is suspect. Super Talent's site doesn't even mention CF cards, though
 I found a review for a 1GB CF card of ST's that wasn't very helpful, just said that 1GB was great for lots of pictures I also found reviews of their PC memory modules, and some other misc PC hardware, and people liked them in that area and said they made a quality product.I dunno, I'm somewhat skeptical, but it's out there in case anyone is interested and/or knows more about the company(s). Amazon has those regular 4GB Sandisks for $150 and Ultra IIs for $180ish, and those are both reputable places
