My first impulse is to suggest a compactflash card since the bn will handle any capacity of those, up to 64gb. However, if you plan to get a Stream, maybe a 2gb SD card so the bn and the stream can read it would work. Those are the best options remaining if you do not want to use thumb drives (and I do not blame you there). I guess it comes down to how much space you need and whether or not you care if the bn and the future Stream can both access the same card.
