Vista - ReadyBoost

I've read somewhere that Vist Readyboost only use up to 1GB and beyond that
any spare is useless. Can anyone advise if this is so?

For this purpose is it better to buy SD card or flash drive? I understand
that USB flash drive must be version 2 what about SD cards? Are there
different speed for SD cards?

Would appreciate anyone's advise. Thanks!

You heard wrong,,, Readyboost can use more than 1 gig, I have it
using 1.8 gig out of 2 on my laptop. Buy the FASTEST drive
you can find.
