Which SD/CF card speed to buy

I want to buy 2Gb SD or CF card for my X51V. Does anyone know X51V read/write speed on SD/CF card?. I don't want to buy slow speed if the device can handle faster than 5M/sec. Looking at 50x (8M/sec) or 133x (21M/sec) speed SD card.
Thanks

Iam using a 4G CF Card of normal speed and a 2G x50 SD Card. I am not finding any difference which one contain maps for GPS. I have *NOT* tried to use card as temp storage yet so my opinion may change.

Personally, I would by the SD card as large as you can get. The SD card just has a nicer fit. The CF Card leaves a gap for bigger dirt to get in.

I am looking at the exact same spec for a card. I wouldn't go lower as it is 2Gb after all

While there is a limit (unknown to me) to the access speed my X51V has I still buy the fastest card possible for these reasons. In case I upgrade the card and use it elsewhere it speed would be of value. I carry additional information from my PC on my card(s) that are not Axim related so speed is of value while the card is inserted into a card reader.
