The yield of integrated circuits generally drops as the die size goes up.
Costs them more so it costs us more.

It beats me as to why a 512 is more than double the cost of buying two
256's.
I just bought a 256 40x cf card (Integral) for £24.00 from CCL Computers.

Change "g" to "a"

Just got an email from Buy.com - 512mb for $19.99 after rebate. Don't
really need more memory, but ordered a pair anyhow. Stocking stuffers!
