Received and installed my Transcend 8GB SDHC card today, ordered from Amazon for ~$36. You give away ~1/2 GB off the bat, the price of formatting on an 8GB card, but it installed and registered right off. First order of business was then copying the 11 books from the Kindle memory to the SD card, which worked fine. Going forward I'll be keeping all of my more permanent content on SD to free up the base Kindle storage for the more 'transient' content like my WSJ and NYT subs as well as various PDF's from work that I xfer to my Kindle for easy reference (and way easier viewing than on my Blackberry).

Now I also feel like I can add a lot more books to my SD 'library' because, frankly, with an 8GB card I think there will be a 3rd gen Kindle on the way and memory will be $0.10/GB by the time I fill this thing up (assuming just text, not audio books).
