Default High Speed SD Cards - which is better

Hi everybody,

I guess I should tell everyone I'm in Canada! and this is the best
deal I could find. So does anyone have experience with Rocketfish? I
can't find any reviews on this card and I'm not sure of it's
reliability.

BTW thank Paul for your suggestion about newegg.com. I tried to get it
online but they only ship to the US.

read a couple in the dpreview, but can't decide whether to get
the Sandisk Ultra II (60x) 2 gb for $96 or the Rocketfish 166x 2
gb for $70.

That is way too much to pay either way. I got a Transcend 2gb
card for $40 a couple months ago and they're less now. I think
mine was 60x but this one is $37.99 and 150x:

It is not quite as good a deal but Amazon UK is advertising this:

2GB SD memory by Transcend for £29 (= $54)

The speed is a very decent 150x.
