I am curious as to how to guage how much storage I will need in my CF card for my new Canon S500?

It comes with a Sandisk MB which seems to hold about 20 at the default setting.
I want to make sure all the images are shot in the highest quality possible and average 800x600 size.

Can you tell me what to expect from a Sandisk 256 MB Ultra II Compact Flash card?

At its largest and finest quality, its about 2.6mb per shot. So you get about 100 shots for a 256 mb.

Thanks...I picked up the card from eBay for about $37 shipped.
