According to everything I've looked at, SLC is what you want for this use. I'm personally a fan of Transcend media, it's less expensive than Sandisk and seems to be every bit as good. My last round of purchases was 4gb 133x cards that were half the price of the similarly spec'd Sandisk media (of note, I use most of my CF media in my camera, so YMMV). --Bill
