You might also consider the RiData 233X 32GB card. I got one from NewEgg for $140 USD. I'm using it in my Motion Computing LE1700 Tablet PC as its SSD and performance is excellent even with Vista (I bought a 1.8" ZIF card and replaced the 1.8" HDD).

If you're really planning on using that large a card with the iLiad I would highly recommend purchasing a USB adaptor that can handle a 32GB card for doing transfers/backups. The iLiad's USB access is miserably slow at around 150KBps which would take 64 hours to move 32GB.

Also you should be aware that the CF slot on the iLiad maxs out at 14X. So 133X/233X cards won't deliver any extra speed when used with the iLiad. But you'll notice the difference when plugged into the USB adaptor!
