SD is by design faster than CF.(?) Could be, but I hadn't heard that
before.
In any case, I have a SanDisk 256mb 'Ultra' CF card that I occasionally
throw some music on and have never noticed any problem with that. There are
different speed cards within the CF lineup as a whole, and I *think* this
'Ultra' designation was one of the earlier improvements. Could be that you
wound up with one of the earliest versions of CF.(?)
