Very good cards. I have several. I usually use 2 and 4gig cards, though. Just a personal preference.

I use both Sandisk Ultra II and Kingston Elite Pro. As the 300D doesn't really take advantage of a really fast CF, it will be up to what you want. Of course, if you have a really fast card reader, then may be worth it to you to get as fast as you can afford.

Sandisk Ultra II - 1GB keep my Rebel happy.

As for store recommendation - depends where you are on the planet :-) picstop.co.uk is where I go but you may find cheaper...

Cameras, lenses and lots to learn.
