Title: Cf Card Size?
Post by: schip2mylou on November 28, 2004, 05:06:28 pm

I've got a Zaurus on my Christmas list -- the SL5500 I think is the one I'd like to receive.  But I'd like to get some Compact flash cardage as well.  What size should I be looking for?  There seem to be some good deals out there due to the holidays!

Thanks in advance,
L

Well as everyone says... I think 128 would be good but 256 and 512 doesn't have a large price differ so I guess it'd be good for 256 or 512 since CF's dropped so much in price and the SD are working their way down too a bit. So ya the two selections are my choice. 256 is a  LOT of space for photos on a normal camera and about 20 songs. For me the 256 is far enough usually.

The more the better, especially if you are putting music or videos on it.  Videos are quite large.  I have a 256M that is dedicated solely to music files.  I have 512 and 1G cards on my Christmas list.
