Classes are basically a speed rating for data writing:

The SDA defines 3 speed classes in order to let users identify speed and performance capabilities of SDHC cards and the host products. The speed class rating specifies a minimum sustained write speed for SDHC cards.

Class 2: >= 2MB/sec
Class 4: >= 4MB/sec
Class 6: >= 6MB/sec
There is also a 20$ 4GB Class 6 option at Newegg from Patriot:

FWIW, the Sandisk 8GB micro SDHC card is a class 2 card. :/
