Can a Canon S110 take a 256mb compact flash?

Curious because the manual only shows values up to 128mb and how much it can hold. My educated guess is that I can hold as much as they can put on a compact flash. Kinda like hard drives. As many gigabytes they can fit within a hard drive enclosure.
 
I have a friend with an S100 - I just traded him my Mr. Flash 256 meg CF card for 2 128-megs from him, since his S100 could handle the 256 meg card, and my Nikon 885 didn't handle it well. So it looks like the S100 can, meaning that the S110 probably can as well... Your mileage may vary of course..
 
Yes and don't bother calling Canon because they are stupid.

I bought a 256MB card for my S100 and called Canon to ask if it would work. They said it wouldn't but guess what? It did.
 
The reason this works is that the BIOS for Compact Flash is on the card, not in the device (as is the case with Smart Media). As a result any CF device should be able to take ANY Type I CF card, no matter how brand-new and huge.
