I bought some 4gb SDHC cards for my new little Canon G10 at Office Depot for
$20 (Sandisk).  Each holds 180 raw images.  That would have been five rolls
of film for my briefcase camera, plus Xray concerns.  Three cards = 500+
images, more than I will ever need on a short bizness trip (unless the
saucers land).  Most of our new hires have never seen a floppy disc...I have
to 'splain.
