I have read only one post were a a guy said he sees a "lag" at times but does not see this on SD cards. I want to buy a 2GB CF card because it's cheaper than the 2GB SD cards. I can get a type II for $138.00 and a SD for $178.00.

I would like to use the CF slot for movies and mp3's. Any of you guys/gals:

1- Use CF for movies and Mp3's?
2- How do the movies play?
3- What kind of CF is it and can you post a link where you purchased it?
4- If there is a lag would it help to go to betaplayer's setting and make adjustment on the buffer so take away the lag?

I know this it's alot of questions but I'm going to buy a cf card thursday and I'm a bit nervous!

Thanks for your input.
