SVP sell the same card (but have no stock). They also have user reviews and they seem to be pretty bad at first glance.

The price is tempting but I'll let someone else do the first review.
 
Just found this site - learned so much I thought I'd comment on this. I found this through www.hotukdeals.co.uk (worth an occasional scan) & bought one. If you're shooting portraits, landscapes, architecture etc. it is fine, but forget it if you need very fast write speeds or if you review & delete a lot on the fly. Download speeds to PC & Mac aren't great either. For more demanding photography I'm sticking to 2 or 4 gb Extreme II or III or similar spec cards. Hope this helps.
 
I have a couple of the Datawrite 2gb CF cards and they are fine.
Not amazingly quick but good enough for what I need.

Not sure I would want to take the risk of loosing up to 850 raw shots from my 30d on one of these cards though. :nono:

Would rather have 2 x 4gb cards.
 
According to the "Compatability" WILL NOT WORK WITH CANON CAMERAS :eek:
IIRC there were issues previously with Datawrite memory cards & personally I'd rather tuck in to a plutonium sandwich ... Paul (y)
