Selecting a Palm expansion card...

Hi.

I've just now ordered myself a palmpilot. I am in pharmacy school and they've got really cool software that is like 15 textbooks that can all be loaded into your palm for use in dosing, drug info and all that neat stuff. I'm excited! Anyway the one I selected was this one:

http://www.palmone.com/us/products/h...ds/tungsten-e/

The PalmOne Tungsten E. Fits me quite well. Middle of the line, some spiffy features, color, lots of fun. Anyways, the entire Drug stiff is 40 MB. The tungsten only comes with 32 MB memory. Obviously I need more. I anticipated this. I was thinking a 128 MB or even 256 MB so I can load lots of fun stuff on it.

Problem is, I don't know what to buy. Palm sells some on their site, but they seem more expensive than elsewhere. CDW has some on the page for the tungsten E that seem ok..but I'm not sure about the brand. It was Simple Tech I think. So here are my questions.

Can anyone reccommend a good brand?

Does anyone know where I can get a good price? (I have been looking around at newegg.com)

Are all these types of cards compatable or do I need a certain special kind?

Normally I am a nerd with this tech stuff but when it comes to PDA's I am fairly ignorant.

Thanks!
