I'm not sure how much the CF AztecMonster costs, but another option is one of these:

It's $72 USD with a 2 gig CF card and a CF adapter, which is pretty good. The CF AztecMonster looks nice for those places where space is very important, but I'm guessing it costs more than $72 (although I'd be VERY happy if I were wrong).
This device allows multiple cards to be used simultaneously (the CF adapter is necessary because most computers want to boot from LUN 0 which is the PCMCIA slot). Not sure how Macs handle multiple LUNs, but on my VAXstation I use the other slots for other flash memory, so this device gives me very easy ways to move data.
Personally, the whole long thread about speeds of this versus that isn't that meaningful to me. I saw very small differences between a not very quick CF card and a 7200 RPM 250 gig SATA drive on my 40 MHz Quadra 605, but nothing big enough that I'd ever prefer one over the other for any reasons other than convenience. On an m68030 machine, I wouldn't even think twice - anything you use is always going to be faster than the SCSI bus on Macs.
