For storing mp3's you will want to go with either a large capacity CF or a microdrive. At the moment the largest SD card is 1GB. However, a 2GB is on the horizon. For now, CF microdrives are your best value. You can get a 4GB microdrive for around $170, possibly less on ebay.

I agree with matt. Microdrive is a great way to get the best bang for your buck. My only suggestion is buy Retail and stay away from ebay on this item. To many people have been burned on this. If you need a link let me know.

Links are always appreciated!! My digital camera accepts Microdrive so that is another thing that would make the Microdrive a good choice.

Thanks guys.
