Lexar 8GB CF Professional

8GB CF? Holy Digital, that's a lot of photos. That's about 1000 RAW files, and oh, lemme see here, 5000 JPEG files.

You could also start to make a movie on that thing. With the latest 8MP DSLR-type cameras, you can make movies as large as your CF will hold.

I'm afraid of what the price might be!

GEEZE!!! That's like TWICE as big as the hard drive in my first computer.

man o man .. that's an awful lot of data/images to be lost if it ever goes bust. :o/

think I'd still rather carry around a few 512megs and my old digital wallet.

This is my thinking exactly.

Does the fact that it comes with a copy of an image recovery program scare anyone else? It's like they're saying, "We know you'll need this so we'll just give it to you so you'll already have it!"
