Canon T3i and CompactFlash

Hi everyone!

I currently own an older canon rebel - I think it's the rebel 450D (it's about four years old). I'd like to buy a memory card that I can use with the old Rebel, and that I could also use if I purchase the T3i. I currently use a SanDisk Ultra II, which from what I understand, is fast enough for my old camera. However, I know that the newer Canons can most likely transfer data faster to the memory card, and therefore would be best used with one of the newer versions. I guess I'm asking what the speediest memory card that one can use with the T3i is. It seems like it would be unnecessary to spend a lot of money on a card that transfers 90 or 60 MB/S since I don't think the T3i is nearly that fast, but I'm not sure the speed that I should look for.
Thanks!
Jenny
