All in all, I'm very happy with a cheap Class 2 device in my N800 thanks euchprof - but feel free to blow your cash on a Class 4 if you think it justified! I certainly don't think it is - the only benefit of Class 4 over Class 2 is when using the card in a PC card reader and performing bulk transfers where you should see improved write performance.
I didn't expect much difference in read speed, but wanted to make sure the write speed is reasonable. The Class 4 was only $5 more expensive than a Class 2 thus it was almost no brainer...
