If you were in the U.S. I'd get a Transcend 4 GB or two at Newegg.com
- cheap, fast enough, and plenty of space. They also back up very
conveniently to a DVD+/-R. I use two with my E-300 and it's as fast or
faster than my Sandisk Ultra II memory. In Canada (New Brunswick,
right?) I don't know about on-line shopping, have you checked prices
at Henry's? For that matter, maybe keep an eye open for sales at
Futureshop and London Drugs.

Even though your camera has not been tested, you can have a look here
http://www.robgalbraith.com/bins/multi_page.asp?cid=6007 and compare various
CF cards.
