it's $165..
hoping for the best, wun need warranty..
I like to take chances with this sort of thing.. My theory:
say unbranded, 20mb/s card.
so what if it under performs at only 16mb/s? esp since same price as a 10mb/s card.
I just bought one Kingston 1GB Elite Pro (blue) from Active Foto at SLS for $135.90. 
There are 2 Active Foto, 1 selling at $139.90 and another one selling at $135.90
The one selling at $135.90 think no more stock as mine is the last 2nd piece.
What I can said is that cheap & good cos lifetime warranty.

Active Foto still selling the Kingston Elite pro 1GB SD for $135.90 with
quite lot of stocks.
Laser selling the Kingmax Platinum High Speed 66X SD at $139, less than
10 pcs of stocks left.
So anybody looking for hi-speed 1GB Sd can go take a look...

From transcent site, spec for 80X max tranfer rate: read 12mb/s & write 11mb/s.
You can download the datasheet HERE to see.
20mb/s is around 133X.
Anyway, the FZ series won't make a different with 10mb/s or 20mb/s..
10mb/s should be enough liao, so can save a bit getting the Kingmax
or Kingston Elite Pro. Correct me if I am wrong cos to exp to get
the Trancend 80X to try .. .
Anyway, I gotten the Kingmax at $139 to try out and it is around
3sec to 3.5sc to save 5 frame from burst mode compare to Kingston
Elite Pro at 4sec.
bought my Kingston Elite Pro 512mb at SL yesterday also. price $67. 1GB is cheaper i think.
you won't want to risk taking all your pictures in 1 card and if anything goes wrong...everything gone. for me i prefer to have a few cards.

Really ah? Even if i use the Sandisk Extreme III of 133X SD card on the FZ20, i won't see a different from using a 66X or 80X SD card ???
Today i went to buy a 1GB SD card. So used the messages in this thread as advice. Looked a few. And unknowingly spent an hour just looking, seeing & thinking 'price vs performance vs reliability'.
*Kingston Elite Pro (the person said 66X, i thought only 60X? But the read & write speed of 8.2 MB/sec & 7.7 MB/sec is slower than 60X isn't it?) - $135.90
*Sandisk Ultra II (66X) - $173
*Sandisk Extreme III (133X) - $239
*Transcend (80X) - $165.90
*Magu (66X) - $133.90
*Mediocra (72X, dun know real a not?) - $132.90
In the end bought Kingston Elite Pro... but should have bought Sandisk Ultra II leh... wat you guys think? That $37 more for being a bit fast (if it does in the 1st place) worth it a not?

I find the Transcend SD card a risky purchase coz it only has 1 yr warranty. Price close to the Sandisk Ultra 2. Maybe between the 2, i'll pick the Sandisk. I can't test the card as i've resold it already. Now thinking which to get... Transcend or Sandisk??...
