What should I get?
I gave my cousin my Nikon 5200 and forgot to take back the 1GB SD card 
.
Just grabbed myself a Canon SD550. I must say that's a very nice camera.
I haven't get the chance to play around with it much, will do this weekend.
Btw, I'm looking to get some new memories. Wanting 2GB. Should I get 2 x 1GB for $60 a piece (150x speed), or one 2GB stick for 125 (but only 66x)
I want portability and don't want to carry two, but the price and the speed differences....
I often do single shots and sometimes continuous action shots too.... so speed is kinda important.

It's on egg, the 1GB is like A-Data or something like that, and the 2GB is the cheapest one when sorted.

2 1 gigs is your best option. A 2 gig card is nice but thats a lot of trust in a single card to hold all your images. Failure does happen occassionally, and personally I would rather lose 1 card of 1 gig in info than 1 card of 2 gigs of info.
