Moonkeeper said:After FW CB its $5.21/card

yeah~~~~ gooooood, but how?

I just received my $60 visa card from the $8 per card deal a while back.

nice find, but $60 rebate.

Seems dead for me. Anyone can confirm?

but looking around the web, I found this (from here):

COLOGNE, GERMANY, SEPT. 29, 2004 – SanDisk Corporation (NASDAQ:SNDK) today introduced the world’s fastest flash memory cards – the SanDisk Extreme ™ III line of CompactFlash â , SD ™ and Memory Stick PRO ™ digital film cards. The CompactFlash and SD cards have minimum write and read speeds of 20 megabytes per second (MB/sec.).

20MB/s write on a SDHC card is pretty impressive. Nice deal OP.

Not only that but this is the more recent 30MB/sec edition, which is able to do 30MB/sec sequential read and writes.

Perhaps a bit overkill though for anything less than a DSLR. But there can still be some speed improvement on a P&S depending on how quick the camera's buffer and memory subsystem is, or if the card being replaced is really slow.

I could successfully place order for 3 couple of hours ago and received the confirmation mail from beachcamera. But now the deal is dead, can I take it granted that I am going to get the Cards.

Use OP's link, add up to three to your cart, then click through the fatwallet link

FW says that you can't have items in our cart before you click the CB link. I don't think this will work, as I have tried in the past without success.

Good deal. I had been looking at the product page almost every day to see if it got back down to $8 or less, as it did then, and noticed it dropped down to $5.99 yesterday. So far my order hasn't been cancelled.

All you had to do was look in the title (or the picture of the card on the beachcamera website), and it says these are (the newer) 30MB/s cards.

cant seem to find my order anymore when i search for it but i didnt get a cancellation email. i also didnt get a credit to my account. any thoughts on this?
