It should be noted that Sandisk and Kingston are primarily sticker 
printers.  As in they buy other peoples' NAND flash and put stickers on 
a plate... So you never know from one package to another what you're 
actually getting.

My employer buys hundreds of CF cards a month.  Kingston is what we've 
settled on for having the least variance out of all of them.

They may specify minimum speed, capacity, and other factors but that's 
about it.

Personally, for my Jornada, I have a 256MB Sandisk, and a 1GB IBM 
Microdrive.  I haven't tried any of the 1GB CF cards.
