OK .... here's what I know. Amazon "says" that SDHC is "unsupported" ... but they sell an 8GB SDHC specifically for use in the Kindle. The thing is, the SDHC will work, it's just that it won't give you the additional speed that it will in a system that supports it.
I spoke with Amazon, and they actually talked me out of an 8GB SDHC and into purchasing a 4GB SD card instead. When you think about the fact that the 4GB is about 4000 books .... it will probably be enough space for most people ... especially if you don't plan to dump a ton of mp3s on there.
So ... SDHC will work, but if the SD only card is cheaper, then go with plain SD. You won't get the benefits of having it be HC, so no point in paying more for it. If the better deal is SDHC, then go for it.
