    I have a Acer Revo R3600 with a built in card reader. I can't decide whether to buy a Sandisk Extreme or Sandisk Extreme Pro SD card. The Pro has read/write of 95Mb/s while the bog standard Extreme has 45Mb/s (well up to that at any rate). Is there any point buying the Pro? I mean in the unlikely event I do get 95Mb/s with it will the built in card slot have a lower max?

    Realistically the time this is most useful is shooting with the card, not data transfer (IMO) - If you're shooting say, sports, continuously with a high FPS camera - if the card isn't fast enough, you'll run out of buffer soon enough.
