Hipsters who hang out in the DSLR crowd should rejoice after hearing about Lexar’s new series of CF cards. These new 300x UDMA cards are professional-grade CF cards that will come in 2, 4, and 8GB sizes. Lexar claims that the new cards are 125% faster than previous versions and that UDMA-equipped devices will be able to enjoy a lovely write speed of 45MB/s.

Of course you’ll need a brand, spankin’ new card reader to compliment those new UDMA CF cards, right? Lexar is dropping two models that cost $50 and $80 and are available in Firewire or USB. Lovely.
