Olympus says it on their US website that the H-type does a bit more, but the M-type is a tad bit faster. I only have 1 of the H-type (1 Gig), but plan on getting a couple more for times when I have no access to a computer.

There is an item you can get from Belkin.com that is a great storage device. They used to have something called the PicturePad. I bought a 20 gig one and it will hold thousands of holiday pics before I get home to down load on my pc.
I think they have come out with a newer version and different name with more bells and whistles but the old PP was just great. You may be able to pick up one from them for a song.
Just make sure it will take the kind of card you use or do you need to get their adapter.

I have a SeaLife DC500 camera and I use the SanDick Ultra II.
I used three 1G memory cards and so far I had absolutly no problem with them.
What I like about this card in that it " breaks" so you can plug it directly into
your laptop USB port ... no need for a card reader or connecting you camera to the laptop to download your pics !!!
1GB can store about 750 pics at 5 MPixels ...
They are a bit more expensive, but I think they're worth it !!!

JJdiver, i think the H card is the faster one not the "m" card.

I haven't seen these yet that plug directly in your USB port. I definately think that'd be worth a few extra bucks!
I'm not sure if the "Ultra" fast card is woth the extra bucks unless you camera has a buffer in it that makes it worthwhile. The cheap point and shoots don't so it seems the Ultra cards don't really write any faster.
