There were some Kingston's available with much faster ratings, but after reading some reviews of them, it seems the Kingston are often much slower than they claim. I've also read that Kingston has a reputation for buying whatever flash happens to be available, resulting in poor consistency. I'd just rather stick to something with consistently good reviews, and Sandisk appears to fit that bill. For the record, my current CF is a Lexar Pro 2GB. Reliability has been impeccable in the current build, but not so much in a net5501. I have a Lexar Pro 4GB in the net5501 currently, and it seems to be fine after a few years. I can't comment on the speed of either of these, as I've never done any objective testing; all I can say is that anything less than an instant firmware update is too slow. ;) db
