Buy.com has a 1GB CF Card for $154.99 after rebate (see here (http://www.gottadeal.com/deal-info-id-58-store-buy.html) for details)

Can anyone comment on this particular card as far as using it with an iPAQ? Any problems?

Viking CF cards are reliable and have good transfer speeds (read/write for digital cameras). I can't comment on use with a pocket PC tho.

that price sounds like a steal. I haven't had a problem with Buy.com (yet), and have had fast service every time. However, based on other peoples' customer service experiences, it seems like you take a chance when shopping from buy.com

There may be readers here who have detailed data about things like read/write speed, etc., but I've been using Viking cards with my Pocket PCs for years and have never had any trouble with them. In fact, I prefer them to SanDisk cards.

I've never heard anything bad about Viking cards.

Sorry, but when going to buy.com, the site shows $197.99 after $45.00 rebate :(
