Default FireStore FS-4 Portable DTE Recorder

Hey all,

I'm getting ready to buy a Canon GL2 with a bunch of Acc. and such for under $1,400.

now I was looking at the FireStore FS-4 Portable DTE Recorder, link here
http://consumer.usa.canon.com/ir/con...rder_accessory

and would like to know if anybody here has ever used such a device.
if so, how did you like/dislike it? would the 40GB be enough or just bite the bullet and get the 80GB?

Thanks in advance,

40 gig not enough. Get the 80 gig. 40 gig is just about 3 hours if it captures in DV-25, and that is not really enough for a day shoot.
