enemy2k2,
Is there anyone in the US that you can ship it to, then have them send it on?

Yep, I posted that three days ago in the front page thread about 512 MB CF cards. And, if they're still accepting the MAPPCTBANK35 coupon, it's $5 cheaper still. :-)
Too bad I bought the card a week earlier when it was $14 more. :-(

Can anyone comment on positive or negative experiences with Viking? I've heard less than flattering experiences with the performance of Viking flash media.
I'm considering a Transcend 512MB CF for $171. Transcend performance is known to be blazing fast compared to other Type I CFs (at least according to www.dpreview.com).

Viking Media
I would share my experiences with three of their CF cards. I have had not one single problem in three years.
I cannot say the same for any manufacturer of SD cards. I have experienced corrupt data and had to reformat several times. Have tried three mfgs, and all had the same problem-even using SoftWinter Storage Tools. I would note that Viking has not been one of those problems.
So I give a thumbs up to Viking products, for a bargain for the money!

I have 4 Viking CF cards, 3-128 mb, 1 256 mb.
I use them all the time in my PPC, desktop (to transfer data in place of a zip disk). Never had any trouble with any of them. I also have half dozen from other manufacturers with no trouble either.
