sounds like you answered your own question, if it worked before you dropped it and now it doesn't work . I got a sandisk 256MB and have no issue but I haven't given it the drop test yet.

the PNY CF card i bought 3 months ago has yet to give me any trouble. I actually have 2 of them, and both work fine. They're both 128mb btw.

I bought a Lexmark 128 at Target for $50. Works good.

I have a Memorex, a Canon, and the one that came with it, and all have worked flawlessly. I also don't make a habit of dropping my storage medium, so I can't give test results on that... :-)

TWO WEEKS AGO I E-MAILED AKAI AND ASKED WHAT WAS THE BEST CARD AND THEY TOLD ME IN THERE OFFICE THEY USE FUJIFILM SO SINCE THEN ALL I USE IS FUJIFILM, IF IT'S GOOD FOR THEM THEN IT'S GOOD FOR ME.
