I would be highly skeptical about a 4 Gb card at that price. The best that 
DealRAM.com is showing is currently $220 and DealRAM generally has the best 
prices going, since they comb the net looking for the lowest available 
prices. Is that Wal-Mart special a name brand card?

Well, I guess in a year when the 4 gigabyte has dropped in price to $100 it
won't matter a whole lot.  I look at the price of the 4 gig card and can
remember that 2 years ago we were paying that much for 512 megabyte cards
and now they are $50 or less.
