how fast are sandisk cf and sd cards?

[dpopiz]

I'm about to buy a canon s30, which uses compact flash, but I'd like to get an sd card and an sd-to-cf converter for it so I can put the sd card in my pocketpc and look at the pictures there. it's not that important but it would be nice. how fast are sandisk 256mb cf cards and sandisk 256mb sd cards?

CF cards are now endowed with "X" numbers which relate to speed. In my Canon D60, I use Lexar 12X media - it is fast enough. But now there are CFs twice that fast. If not specified, it is plain Jane baseline CF.
