Editorial Reviews
Viking Components
Go to the Memory Finder to see a listing of the digital cameras, PDAs, MP3 players, photo printers, or other products that are guaranteed compatible with this Viking product. The Memory Finder contains an up-to-date list of the devices that work with this memory.
Benefits of Adding Flash Memory
Increased Speed: With a larger flashcard you will spend less time transferring files to or from your computer or laptop and more time taking pictures with your digital camera, listening to music on your digital audio player, or storing more information on your PDA.
Increased Power: Increasing the memory storage for your digital camera, PDA, or MP3 player will enable you to do more with a device. For example, if you are taking pictures on your digital camera using the highest resolution and highest quality setting, an image taken from a 2-megapixel camera can be as large as 6 MB. This can eat up storage space quickly, so it's easy to see the benefits of increasing your device's flash memory.
Guaranteed Compatibility
It is important to purchase memory that is guaranteed to be compatible with a device because of the many subtle differences between the hundreds of different brands, types, and configurations of digital devices on the market. A product that accepts one particular brand or capacity of memory does not necessarily accept another brand or capacity--and there's nothing more frustrating than buying something you can't use.
Because compatibility is so critically important, Amazon has forged a strategic relationship with Viking Components to create the Memory Finder. The Memory Finder is a tool that can help you find memory that works with your specific product, taking the guesswork out of buying memory.

When you purchase a Viking flash card, you can be assured that it will perform flawlessly with your specific device. Furthermore, Viking uses only the highest quality components to manufacture their flash memory, which results in fast, reliable, durable flash products.

Customer Reviews
Do NOT buy Viking CompactFlash "-P" memory cards
Do NOT buy Viking CompactFlash "-P" memory cards! They are more expensive and are the same exact product as their non-P memory cards. See below for an actual transcript of my question to Viking's online support center.
I asked:

What is the difference between the CompactFlash memory products CF128M and CF128M-P? What technical advantage does the CF128M-P card have over the CF128M? Thanks.

Thank you for using Viking online support. There is no difference between the CF128M & the CF128M-P. They are the same flash cards. The difference is how they are marketed/sold.
Do not get ripped off!!! I've asked them this question once before and got the same response from a different customer service representative.
Great storage device
I am using this card in my new Canon PowerShot G3. I have had no problems with the card and am pleased with its storage capacity. It can store lots of pictures and has a good transfer rate.
Good ad cheap
Having read some bad reviews about the 256MB Viking I decided to get this one for my Canon S400. It holds 60 frames at the highest resolution. The transfers are pretty fast compared to an older older 64MB CF also by Viking. I have not experienced any problems. I bought it along side my camera and almost got it for free with the memory rebate.
