Hi,

There is a big table of values, shooting modes, quality, etc... on page 215 of the Canon Powershot A70 manual.

If you put everything at the highest quality you'll get something like this:
128MB card: 76
64MB card: 38
16MB card: 8

I basically always shoot with the quality set on the highest (Superfine, 2048x1536px), and have a 256MB Kingston card which is fast and reliable. However if you don't plan on playing around with your photos much, you could always just lower the resolution and get more shots on the card. :)
