I just have two Sandisk wallets that came free with my 1gig Ultra II CF cards... the wallets hold two CF cards so they hold my 4 x 1gig cards... which is enough storage for me on a weekend away.. if i need more I'll just bring the laptop or and iPod to upload to.

You mean physical storage, right? Got only one 512MB CF card, so it's always stored in the camera! :)

I have a hard plastic case that holds up to 4 CF fards. It looks to be somewhat water resistant, but I'm not in any hurry to test it out. :)

While I bought mine at Fry's in Anaheim, I've seen them here at Fletcher's too.

I only have 2 x 512MB Sandisk Ultra IIs that came in plastic snap casings. I use those and put them in my vest pocket.

Lowepro has one type of wallet can hold few cards.
Optech has also and I've seen few members with couple plastic cases, to claimed as waterproof, wondering is anyone deep it into the water yet?

I use a zippered wallet made by Tamrac. It has pockets for four cards, but they will stretch to accept two in each one instead. 8x14x4cm. It has a long belt strap on the back with both velcro and a snap to keep it secured.
The tag says MXS5368. There's still enough room to stick a few batteries or a filter or two in it. But nothing to hold those in place.

My card container is made by Gepe in Sweden... they come in 2x or 4x sizes and are supposed to be dust- and water- proof but I have no real intention of testing the sales claims :lol:

Kayell in Artarmon had them in stock the last time I looked.

I have 4 cards in the small scan disk holder and that works well. I use the Lowepro holder for digital Mini DV tapes and many other accessories from them. I personally have not used the LowePro CF holder that BirdDog refers too but it would be worth a look.
