5 out of 5 stars Fast and reliable   January 31, 2007

Initially I was thinking of getting a Sandisk 4GB Memory Stick PRO Duo for my PSP, for about $10 cheaper. But I had some negative experience with Sandisk flash memory cards before so I decided to get the real Sony one. I haven't had my Sony 4GB for long enough to know its long-term durability, but so far it's been totally worth the extra 10 bucks. It's fast and reliable, which gives me a peace of mind (worth more than $10, I hope). You get about 3700MB of usable storage which is still plenty.

This will hold my game saves and a couple movies plus my favorite episodes from The Simpsons as well as some MP3 files and photos for a while. I look forward to the day when Sony upgrades the PSP's firmware to allow the use of the upcoming 8GB (reportedly already available in Japan) and 16GB Memory Stick PRO Duo cards.



5 out of 5 stars This thing is so great!!!   May 15, 2007

I originally had a 2 gig Memory Stick. I thought it had so much room I'd never fill it up. Then I decided I'd go with this 4 gig stick for those times on vacation, etc. when you're taking a lot of pics and video. This thing is truly amazing!!! I've been taking pictures like crazy (my family just groans each time I start snapping pictures). I have hardly scratched the surface in storage on this stick.

I highly recommend it. It's so easy to insert into my computer and download pictures.

It's wonderful!!!



5 out of 5 stars Worked great in Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T10!   August 9, 2007

I took a risk buying this mem stick... I have a Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T10 and the owner's manual says it only supports 2GB or smaller sticks. I'd read another user's review who said it'd work so I gave it a go. I bought one of these Sony 4GB Memory Stick PRO DUO ( MSX-M4GS ) for my first trip to New York. Five days, a 1000+ pictures and many minutes of short little movies - and the stick was great. Got home, plugged in and WinXP had no problem pulling the files right off. I guess the manual was just outdated, maybe 4GB wasn't available at print time... Anyway, this stick has super fast access all 'round. Good price, excellent product. Thumbs Up!


5 out of 5 stars Great Price for long lasting Memory   June 12, 2007

At the turn of the century we started out with a Cannon GS-1 digital camera with a 16 MB CF cards which went up to 1 GB CF cards a few years later. Then we bought a semi professional Sony DSC-F828 Digital camera which took both CF & Sony Memory sticks but the price for a 1 GB Sony Memory stick was over the top. Today you can get four times the memory at half the price & size with an adaptor to boot with the Sony 4 GB Memory Stick PRO DUO. Amazon.com is selling at a very low price & comes with fast service. Thanks, next time I go on vacation I will bring a Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W80 with just one 4 GB Memory Stick, put everything in my pocket & wait for the perfect shot.


5 out of 5 stars Lots of Memory is a Good Thing!   January 18, 2007

I bought the 4 gig memory card for my Sony DSC T7 camera and now I don't get the evil "memory full" error message - ever! When I purchased the camera a year and a half ago, the most memory that was available was 512, so I was always running out of memory, especially if I was shooting video. It might sound like a lot of money for a memory card, but the confidence that there will be no missed photos is priceless. Now if Sony could just get their darn batteries to last as long as the memory cards!!!
