    Assuming that the 1197 also does not come with a SD card either.....

    Is there a preferred Brand / Size / Speed of SD card recommended by the Si owners out there...??

    The 1197 does not come with an SD card, nor an SD card reader.

    SD cards are cheap. Get yourself a 2GB card and it will hold more screen captures than you can imagine.

    My laptop has a built-in SD card reader, which makes downloading screen captures to my laptop on the boat easy as pie.

    My recommendation is to take LOTS of screen captures and study them while out of the boat. You'll be surprised how much you'll pick up on when you're not focused on catching fish or controlling the boat.

    2GB is fine, but don't get the cheap cards. Used a cheapo and it took significantly longer to write the file to the card. Switched to one, cant remember the brand, but it was SDHC and significantly improved the write time.

    A lot like the old Wannabe... except with fewer bad words. And Karate chop action. But, yes, still purtier than you.

    I'm using a 8 GB in mine.
    It's not the numbers or the size, it's the time spent on the water!

    I use Sandisk Extreme III in my camera and my SI. Excellent flash memory.

    Get high speed name brand stuff. Makes a big difference with snapshots.

    Look at the package and check the access speed. The higher this number, the faster the flash can accept data. I believe mine is 133X. Be sure to check this write parameter before you buy. Speed don't kill and does matter.

    Default Also, if I recall correctly

    Most of my snapshots were about 900kb in size. So, round this number up to 1 meg and you can save 2000 snapshots using a 2 Gig Sd card. Theoretically, of course.
