Does anyone have any advice on which one of these two CF GPRS cards
would be better (mainly for use with a Zaurus SL-C3200)?

Pretec CompactGPRS

Audiovox RTM-8000

The Pretec seems to have its own battery - it looks quite a bit chunkier.

This is mainly for use while I'm on call, and I'd probably need to be
able to stay online for up to a maximum of an hour from fully charged
batteries.

If the extra battery capacity is necessary to get sufficient time
online, then I'd also consider building/buying an auxiliary battery pack
for the zaurus for use with the audiovox.

I'm also interested in any other factors that people might know about
these cards, such as how nicely they work with OpenBSD (and for the
driver developers, which manufacturer made your life easier), any
gripes, tips, etc.
