Rick S asks:

I see I can get a 1 Gb compactflash card for 20 or 30 bucks more than
a 512 Mb card.... seems a no brainer to me, I'd like to get a coupla 1
G's rather than 4 512's, (I'm going on a long trip and will not have
any downloading capability).
Is there any reason I should avoid such a big capacity card?

Loss? If you lose a card, you lose a lot more photos with the big ones. I've
never lost a card, but I have misplaced a couple for several weeks. Very
disheartening.
