Default Flash memory cards for my new ski-cam?

I just got the Canon PowerShot A80 that others have recommended here, as
my first digi-cam. Plan to use it on a forthcoming ski trip to Montana.

Any recommendations for a larger flash memory card, specifically sizes
and brands? This is 4 MP camera, and the flash card that comes with it
is only 32 MB. Not sure I need a full 1 GB one, though.


Also consider the write speed of the card. I think bigger = faster, but
I can't remember why. I'm still ****ed about the shots I missed because
the camera was still writing 2-meg shots to my 48-meg Lexar card.
