Edit: I just posted this in the big thread for help with buying a card, but got no responses, so I'm posting again in a new thread. Sorry if this is improper forum edicate.

I'm replacing my old R4 now for two reasons; First, I recently got an 8gb microSDhc card that won't work correctly on the card despite claims that this card supports sdhc. Second, Bowsers inside story won't work on this card.
I recently upgraded my fat DS to a Lite, and have no intention of getting a DSi any time soon.
The following are my main concerns
- compatibility with my 8gb sdhc card
- 100% rom compatibility
- Ease of use. (transferring games to the card, and booting the card and starting games)
I am not concerned with;
- DSi support
- GBA support
- homebrew
- any non game media support, ie videos or music
- any features that are not directly related to playing DS games
I am somewhat interested in extra features for use while playing DS games, but these aren't too important.
I'm considering cycloDS or acecard, but both of these brands have several different cards, and I don't really know the difference between them. I hear that CycloDS has more features, but costs several times more. What exactly are these features? I'd like to decide if they are worth the extra cost for me.
Most importantly, I just want to know which brand and specific version is best for the three main concerns I listed above.
Any recommendations on where to buy them would also be helpful.
