I've done a quick(?) test:-

Full Transcend 2G 150x in P2000 SD socket:  10m 13s.
Same in CF adapter:                         13m 35s.

4G Class 4 SDHC with same 2G of data:       13m 35s.

I use the P2000 when traveling. I often have friends in tow who want to see
a slide show. JPGs are more handy for that. JPGs and PEFs just lead to a
double set of thumbnails on the Epson.

I'm still using CS1 so I need the DNGs.  I guess I'm willing to lose some
space for the perceived extra convenience.
