Albano,

Fast cards are worth it up to a point.  For example, it's been written here
that the various Pentax istD cant take advantage of anything more than a
45X card, and that the DS and DL can take advantage of 60X cards.  However,
cards faster than that will enable you do download and transfer files to
your computer faster.  The larger the capacity of the card you're using,
depending on your impatience, the faster you might want it to be.  A few
people here, myself included, are very happy with 60X and 80X cards.  Cards
of those speeds in a 1GB capacity seem to be pretty good values, depending
on where they're purchased. The next card I get will be an 80X 1GB card,
probably from Transcend.  It seems to be a good blend of value, speed, and
capacity.
