[lug] compact flash

[j davis]

Well, I have had my 32meg  kodak compact flash for a year. I only put 
pictures
on it....the longest my c.f. has held a picture is about 3 months.I have not 
noticed any file or media corruption yet.However i only take about 5 or 10
pictures a month and immedatly transfer them to my hard drive.
