>From Pentax Norway I heard that one of the most frequent "issues" with the K200D at Pentax Norway is customers who have got their SD/USB cards stuck inside the camera. The fit is too tight by a gnat's whisker. The SanDisks are ever so slightly thicker than ordinary SD cards, and possibly the well in the camera is on the narrow side too. Anyway, it's not a good combination.
I don't expect Pentax users to impact any business decision at SanDisk, but it could be interesting if this is an issue with other brands and models too.
