	Just get the $9 CF <-> PCMCIA and a few old CF mem cards
(128m are cheap these days) and format them and you should be "ok",
just don't expect tac to RMA them for you :)

	That way if you upgrade to s720 you can just take the CF
card with you :)

	Now, I would honestly recommend to get big CF cards, enough
that you can save a few images on them, and honestly, at least 512m
if you can afford it.
