   Right now all I've got to go on is this page:
   http://www.openbrick.org/wiki/cf/FrontPage

   I'm just getting into OpenBrick but I haven't been able to find anyone 
using a CF card larger than 512 MB.  I'm actually about to try out a 1GB CF 
card in a few days.

   In essence - you're nearly on your own when it comes to trying a 4 GB card, 
but if you do try to go for one - make sure it's a Lexar card, which are also 
(unfortuntely) the most expensive - otherwise you're probably wasting your 
time (and money).

   The 1GB card I'm about to try is a Lexar.  Still no guarantees, and I don't 
expect any.
