ATF Question--what to use?

The specified ATF for the 9-5 is Saab 3309, which seems kinda pricey at $19/liter at eEuro. The Mobil 3309 is supposedly OK but I haven't checked prices or for where to find it. From searching here, it looks like some Toyota T-4fluid is OK, too
When I asked at AutoZone, their computer comes up with a three choices, one of which is Castrol High Mileage ATF. This is supposedly OK to use in a variety of cars and those include ones needing Toyota T-IV/T4. The product data sheet from Castrol says its also OK in all Volvo trannies, and a post here from Anders says the Volvo and Saab Aisin-Warner trannies are the same.
I have, in fact, put this fluid in #2 daughter's '99 9-3. Seems fine so far but it's only been 2-3K miles.
SO, with our '03 9-5 Linear wagon coming due for a tranny fluid flush (dealer did the change), what to use? Options seem to be the Castrol High Mileage but from the post below, Mobil 1 Synthetic is apparently compatible with the 3309 fluid.
So what to use?
