Good price - good card:
I've used this card in a Nikon D50 and D80 with zero issues for 1.5 years. At the time it was a great deal. Transcend has a lifetime warranty, although I've never had to deal with a defect so I'm not sure how their support is.
128MB not available anymore, but the 256MB version is fast:
I needed and ordered a 128MB SD flash card for a specific device I was using. I was interested in trying the Transcend Ultraspeed 80x card due to the high speed claims at a decent price. Well, the company I ordered the part through indicated that Transcend no longer made the 128MB version and sent me a 256MB version. I was able to use the the 256MB version in another device.

Top-notch!:
We have taken over a thousand pics on this card and we have had exactly ZERO glitches with it! No errors. No transfer issues. Nothing. Why doesn't all electronic equipment work this well?
Not 80x, but fast.:
I used HDtune 2.52 to measure the performance of a few SD cards.
The Transend 1GB 80x was the fastest with 9.0MB/s transfer.
I wish more companies would publish reasonable performance numbers.
Just for comparison, the Sandisk Ultra II 1GB (which cost me more!) delivered 6.4 MB/sec.
