    PNY CF cards?

    Anyone have any experience with them? Fast? Reliable? Slow and crappy?

    I found a 2 gig 133x (20mb/sec) for 30 bucks and am debating if I should pick a few up.

    thanks.

    I've had a few of their 1gig cards. They work well, pretty fast. I had one crap out on me though, which luckily there wasn't any images on it. I'd probably pick up one or two more if I ever needed them.

    I picked up a Lexar 133x 4gb for $18 after rebate.. You should check out that deal as the rebate expires on April 30th.

    thanks.
    I'm using a pair of the 4GB ones. They are fairly new, so I haven't really encountered any problems with them. I have used a PNY flashdrive (128mb) now for about 4 years now with no issues. Personally I've liked and have had good success with PNY products.
    Cheers,

    Thanks for the tips, I think I am going to pick a few up. If I have anything to really say about them, I'll post a review.
