Question D70: Lexar 80x or Ultra II/III?

I'm currently using a Lexar 80x 1GB. Thinking of getting another CF card. Would you recommend Lexar or Sandisk, or another option? TIA

At almost $50 more is Ultra III really worth it?

thanks for the further info! thread links noted...

personally i haven't formatted my lexar card before. just popped it in and have been using it without probs, even as document storage.

notice all have preferred sandisk so far. any reasons? wondering if i should try one even though a lexar appears cheaper

Taken almost 80 Gb of shots with my lexar 80x.....no problem with it...anyway its covered with lifetime warranty by Convergent, who have been very fair in dealing with warranty issues.
