IMHO 2gb is more than enough. I still have and use my 512kb cf card with my Canon Rebel. I use the highest JPG and it provide enough capacity for me. I do have a 2gb card for backup.

For battery, I don't see anything wrong by choosing knock off battery. The only original battery that I have are the one that came included with the camera. The others I bought from ebay, it's much cheaper, for the price of one oem battery, I got 3 knock off. I got one knock off battery arrived DOA, the other are just fine and I don't see any difference in capacity & reliability compared to oem battery.

I just got my 20D and im scared as hell to use a cheap battery in it. I dunno, i might get that one that will blow up in my camera or something ehhee.

However, you post gives me hope. The battery for the 20D is like 60$.
