Hey I was looking to get a new Sony Digicam and I want to buy a new large memory card for it. But I was also planning on getting the new PSP, so I thought well I might as well get one really big card since I am at it. But I need to know what type of card is the PSP compatible with? Is it the memory stick duo or pro, or all types? Is it a size thing?

Deja vu.

It's a size thing. PSP supports Memory Stick Duo variety, which includes:

Memory Stick Duo
and
Memory Stick Duo Pro

Both are the same size, but Pro variant reads and writes faster, and is available in larger capacities.

What's the read/write rates at Duo and Pro Duo?

newegg, MS Pro Duo 512 MB <$80 is all you need to know.

OK, so what is the max size for a Memory stick duo or duo pro? Is it only 512MB for the time being?

512 Megs for $80? Did Bic rip me off with the 12800 price tag?

The High speed ones are pretty expensive. :\

 

[mrklaw]

Max capacity is 512MB for the pros, and 1GB for the new high speed ones (v. expensive and limited availability)


I'd have thought 12800 is a good price. Bic isn't always the cheapest, and Sony prices are way more than $80 for 512MB. Hope newegg ship to the UK....although I'm not buying one yet because I don't want to tempt fate...

That's about right for a Sony brand MS, the one I was talking about was a Sandisc brand (which sells for ~10000 yen)
