recommended cf cards

hi guys. as per title, what cf cards do you use currently with your dslrs? was just looking at amazon uk and they have very good deals on them especially with the lexar 2gb 300x udma for 17.99 + pp. i've had a sandisk ultra II which gave up on me during my holiday which was very disappointing, i mean like all pics disappeared when i was transferring them to my comp. question is, will the lexar work on my d70? thanks

Re: recommended cf cards

I think Sandisk is the best brand, followed by Lexar. My most recent purchase was 4Gb Sandisk Extreme III - 30 Mb/sec version.
