Having just ordered a new 800, I too am scanning for SDHC cards.

That price is OK - not wildly great, as I can get that size card for $39 locally (link). More concerning is that the site seems to be touting slightly older specs - as in calling an 8GB card large - which should now be reserved for a 16GB card, and really pushing in their side bar ads the 1 and 2GB cards. This tactic, as I have seen in a lot of retailing is " get rid of the soon to be obsolete technology at the best price possible, hopefully before the buying public realize there are better specs and/or deals to be had.." and something about the write up here smells of that.

On the card brand, they seem to have some scale in europe and australia, so they could be OK. A web search on supermediastore.com turned up one fellow that wasn't too pleased - http://club.cdfreaks.com/f33/screwed...re-com-190603/

Sometimes, you have to be the test case and report back to the rest of us. At these prices it is not too much to gamble...

Let us know if you order... and how it goes.

The store has been around for a while and I've bought from it a couple of times. No problems.
