It isn't cheap at $799, but if you need storage space without sacrificing battery life, this is the way to go. I cannot tell though if this is a Type I or Type II card, so Jornada users, be sure you ask before ordering.<br /><br /><img src="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/images/hansberry/2002/20020628-1gbcf.jpg" />

hmmmm......I have serious problems paying more for the accessories then I originally did for the PDA.

If nothing else this might (Repeat MIGHT) drive down the price of lower end CF cards.

If nothing else this will be kick butt for digi-cam fans. Except me and my fellow Sony Cybershot owners where we are banished to the land of memorystick! :P

Though its MSRP is 799, you can find it for quite a bit cheaper. I have seen some prices under 600. MobilePlanet even has it for 699, and though that isn't 599 like some stores, it is better then the 799 from Sandisk.

I found another page showing everything SanDisk has is Type I except the 1GB - and they had no info on that card. :?

Or make sure you pick up an Atek CF Pocket Type I to Type II Adapter (http://www.atek.com/accessories/cfpocket.htm).......

Ed, i think you are right. The SANDISK that was being shown as a prototype (Dummy card) was type 1, but from what i have been hearing is that it will be type 2 for a while till they get the memory to fit into type 1 size. Type 2 is great .. I have two of the simple tech cards and they work great. I perfer these to my IBM 1gb Microdrive.. I dont have to be as careful. :)

I was able to pick one up the other day, and it is most definitely a Type I CF card.
