Unhappy Fuji S7000 & 2.2Gb CF+ Type II not working

My boss asked me to order a new camera for a project I am about to start so I ordered the Fuji S7000 from Ebuyer as it is a camera I am considering myself and wanted to see if I like it or not

Ebuyer were offering it as a bundle with a Magicstor 2.2GB CF card.....Oh dear I hear you all say Unfortunatly I did not know that the camera will not see this size drive so when it arrived today and I put the card in all I got was the 'card not initialized' message

I am going to contact Ebuyer tomorrow but wondered if any S7000 owners could tell me what is the best size and make cards to get for the camera (assuming Ebuyer stocks them as I should imagine it will be hard enough to get them to swap it for another never mind give me a refund on the company credit card!).

They do a Kingston 512Mb CF as well as a Lexar 1GB...would either of these be OK ( I am tempted to just get the 2.2 replaced with 2 of the 512Mb cards.)

Kingston 512mb CF £17-99 + P&P here http://www.mymemory.co.uk/memory/Kin...act/Flash/Card
oh and while you're there this is also an absolute bargain and a must if you are using rechargeable Ni Mh's http://www.mymemory.co.uk/memory/Uni...0mAh/Batteries (This price is cheaper than anywhere else including ebay)

I bought the above charger and a Lexar CF from them when I got my S7000. The CF price is excellent for the brand and 40x (and it WILL work in the S7000 )
