I'm also not so sure I like the switch from CF to SD. Never had any problems with CF in the istD, but the first SD card (Sandisk Ultra II) I put on my K10D was first OK but now already refuses to be read in the PC disk drive. I have not mistreated it in any way (but perhaps I'm too old for these tiny things?). Now I have to use the PC cable to unload this card.

Just pop your SD card in your DSLR only upside down and push real hard, you'll find something will break but most often it's the card. I'm also hearing more anecdotes about dirty contacts on SD cards causing read/write unreliability.
