I prefer to think of the media card as being "tied" to the camera. Don't
think of it as a card you'll be moving from camera to camera as you
upgrade - just think of the card as part of the camera itself. Get a new
camera = get a new card. Not really a huge expense in the scheme of
things.

Heck, the Sandisk Ultra II 512 meg SD card is only $80 at newegg.com.
That's not a lot of dough.
