ends 3/6/06

UPDATE: It's currently unavailable (i'm thinking because of a shortage of memory cards).

Also, it shouldn't be too good to be true.
I've recently bought another 1 gig card from staples for 35 bucks.

    the lexar site says the WA technology only works with a few cameras. I have a d70, will the card still work properly? would i be better off just getting the high speed card instead of the wa card

    Says this: *All non WA enabled cameras perform just like standard 80x cards.

    So I would think you would be fine.

    I don't understand the rebate. Is it a mail in rebate or an instant rebate?

    Buy.com & Lexar 80x Pro Card
    I bought this card from Buy.com and had absolutely no problems. It arrived within 3 days and I have sent the rebate form in.

    I live in CA and use Buy.com all the time because they always get my items to me within a couple days - obviously this could be different for you east-coasters

    Hope this helps!

    Then maybe you can answer my question. Was the rebate a mail in rebate or an instant rebate? Thanks...Dean:):

    Buy.com is fine - I've never had any problem with them. Fast and reliable. I've got a USB wireless adapter arriving today from them - they were about $15 less than amazon on this card.
