I've just gotten back on the list after a break of a few months (my wife and I had our first child, a baby girl named Alice; there is of course a voluminous selection of photos of her at http://pugnax.smugmug.com/gallery/3328936_sHtfP/1/261082219_pijqN) , and I hope everyone's doing well.
I agree on the brands: I have a Sandisk 4 GB along with the reader that came with the card, and I've been very happy with both. Dell screwed me over on an order so they practically gave it to me, so I don't remember the price. Also have a cheaper 2GB card which I've been using for a HD video camera. One thing I've been using around the house is an Eye-Fi 2GB wireless card. I don't think it's that useful unless you're close to your computer or another computer where you've already set up an account, but for taking shots at home, the card has saved me a lot of time in organizing, as it automatically creates a folder of the photos ou take wherever you prefer with the day's date and of course uploads the photos wirelessly; I just trash the photos I don't want to keep, and edit the ones I do. With a reader the Eye-Fi is around $99.
