I've just posted an update to that thread, but I'd stick with the Sandisks (and look for sales or rebates). As I noted there, I've had a Transcend that has performed flawlessly to date as well, but not so good luck with Kingstons (although their RMA support people have been pretty good).
Edit: Sandisk is running a rebate program (US Residents Only -- sorry Leslie and Colm) through early July. Not as good as the prior program, but still. It appears the Extreme 60MB/s cards have supplanted the Extreme III 30 MB/s cards; at least they are the same price currently. Here's the rebate form, attached below.

I've been using a Ridata 32GB 233x and it's perfectly reliable recording HDV. I just did a 2hr 15 min shoot.
Now I'm eyeing the Transcend 64GB 400X (5.66 hours), which is going for under US$200... |
