Not as good as the sears deal before Christmas but still pretty decent for 512. Only problem is tax in my state.

Just a word of warning. My dad got a Kingston 512 SD from eCost for his 4155. It's extremely slow for it's write times. (Tried it both in his 4155 and my 1945 with the same slowness). So slow that when programs try to write to it, you think they've locked up, but in reality, if you just wait anywhere from a minute to several minutes, they finish writing to the card and become responsive once again.

I personally would avoid them.

I've been using my Kingston 512 sd for a few weeks now. Loading huge programs can be cumbersome as it does seem to write fairly slowly, but program execution has not caused any problems.

yes, i have a kingston 256 card and write times are extremely slow. the lowest ive experienced is .02k/sec. even after formatting it with pocket mechanic for speed i can only get around maybe .27k/sec. but if you guys are wanting a cheap card, i guess its ok for the price
