Your best option is none of them.
I suggest the R4i-SDHC 1.4 Because it has great support and fast firmware updates plus you can download NDS DPG and new firmware with it on wi-fi.
Sure i may be an R4 fanboy but you gotta admit, it's great!
BTW, never heard of R4 Ultra :|
Oh and the best bit about the R4i-SDHC is that it isn't a clone

I actually have all of the cards

Acekard pros:Fast menus, fast updates with Akaio, works wonderful with ez 3in1, works on all models
cons: low built quality
M3 Real/Zero Pros: Lots of functions on the card if using Sakura, reasonably fast updates, Good built quality
Cons:Too slow in the menus for me, more fiddle to make ez 3in1 work, some updates are incomplete
Cyclo DS: Fast updates good compatibility with games
Does not work on DSi
Iedge: Pros: Reasonably good updates, OK built quality
Cons: few owners may mean worse support in the long run.

R4 branded carts:
R4 original like Acekard when running wood, better built quality
R4i-SDHC some updates are incomplete, I guess updates will only last till they release a new cart, built quality is good
R4i RTS (made by M3 team) Best updates on any R4 clone, boring menus, cart built quality is good, but pin protection could be better.
Rest of the R4 branded carts are actually pure crap.

Everyone will always have their own opinions obviously. There is a thread with a poll which would provide a general consensus of what card is "best." If you are looking for a card with specific features then you might have to do some more research to cater to what would fit you best.

Just so we're clear, any other card has the same risk of updates suddenly ceasing.

M3i Zero has those features, but I had a lot of trouble with mine, it could not even go into sleep mode.
I do not recommend the M3i Zero, ever.

The CycloDS also has those features, and is a superb, reliable card with a great team that is always updating.
But, no DSi support which unfortunately holds it back, a lot.

so your saying that cyclods is a good card with all those features and a reliable card
so then iedge should be all that and more cause its a good clone of cyclods
im not getting cyclods cause of price
if cyclods is good then iedge is good
so iedge is a cyclods with slow updates

The DS is on its last legs (as the 3DS is on its way early 2011). I don't see AKAIO dying while the DS is still alive. You worry too much. There's only a year left in the DS.

Two comments about EVO sources.

1 - EVO was $6 cheaper until a few days ago @ 0shippingzone.

2 - Shoptemp requires buying their MicroSD card bundle to get that price.

I have an EVO, an iEDGE and an AK2i and I am keeping an eye on the vaporwares EX4i and Supercard DS2i.
I personally prefer my iEDGE, but I would recommend an AK2i to anyone else.
I no longer use my EVO because it does not work in my DSiXL
I would not recommend buying any currently available R4, but that could change if the EX4i checks out.

Edit: I misread the Shoptemp ad.
The flashcard requires a MicroSD card, but the bundle is optional.
