I got the 2 GB Transcend and swapped out my 4GB...boot up is faster but the verifying data is still about 15-20 seconds...I used the ez scan formatter...should I be partitioning and/or formatting differently?
Thanks

I formated a 2GB card with a 512k partiton using fat16 and 32k clusters
boot is immediate but verifying files is still taking 24 seconds!

I use a 2 GB SD Card, with 1,700 objects and 9,000 Radio ID's programmed and the scanner is up and running under 15 seconds. Despite what you argue, you have a SD card issue. I use SanDisk cards.

If you have the latest firmware and DSP update on a Whistler WS or TRX scanner then you know that this is no longer the case. No SD card issue, they changed the way the scanner handles the file system. If you are really up and running in 15 seconds you do not have the latest firmware (Whistler has confirmed this is the way it works now days).
