Default Digi Cam guru's unite!

So I just bought a PQ1 2GB secure digital card, but the one review I read said it becamse corrupt in like 2 weeks...Do you think I should return it, or open it and test my luck?

The other option is spend the same $$$ for a SanDisk 1GB that has a $18 rebate ($22 after)

Another option is Kingston which works great as well. I run one of their 1 gig cards and it writes at acceptable speeds for me in a proffessional environment.
