Kingston. It's this one:

Maybe I just got a dud. It's a Class 4 card. I'm under the impression that is fast enough (or do I need something faster). 

[Update: The first one I ordered was a dud. Got another of the same exact card and it's been rock solid ever since.]



Miscellaneous Notes

Class 2 cards are really S-L-O-W at transferring files to your PC, compared to the Class 6 cards, but half the price for any given size. (Mike Davis)

I have had lots of trouble having my Transcend 16 GB class 2 card recognized. Works perfectly but usually takes 3-4 tries to be recognized.  I just leave it in the recorder and use the recorder as the card reader.

bryonsos:
I've been using this one, and haven't had any problems so far:
