I've been using the Transcend 4GB cards and the SanDisk 2GB cards and 
in hundreds, probably thousands!, of downloads have never had a card 
fail.  (Knocking on wood!)  I have heard about failures with Lexar 
cards but have never used one of those.  What brand was your card 
that failed?  Could you use a recovery program to get the photos 
back?  What a nightmare it would be to lose wedding photos!
