I reckon the difference is slower write speed

Double the write speed to the card thus the camera can dump it's memory buffer quicker, handy if taking lots of continuous shots

Edit
They might of made a mistake in the header below is taken from Extreme note,s but spec say 60MB ???

But alot of cameras can't write that fast anyway. If you want real speed to clear the buffer then buy a camera that takes CF cards.

My extreme won't keep up with my 60d on HSS. Someone told me that compact flash is better for continuous.
