Beware of FAKES
14 Jan 2010
At Least two of the Sony Packaged Memory's Pictured here on Amazon are FAKES or COUNTERFITS.
UNUSABLE MEMORY.
The people that make these are taking non-sony generic crap 512's, 1,2,or4 G size chips
and creating very elaborate nearly perfect (looking) FAKES! Zoom in and look very closely
at the model numbers for the 8 and the 16 Gig. In the third and forth images you can plainly see
the fake model numbers I have shown below.
Their numbers do not exist in the True Sony lineup.
for example: MSX-M8GST/X & MSX-M16GST/X do not exist <<< BOTH ARE FAKE
Dont believe me,, go look it up for yourself ,,, GOOGLE it or look at the links below.
THE NUMBERS SHOULD SAY
for MARKII MS-MT8G & MS-MT16G Also there is an 8g that is not MARKII it is MSX-M8GS/X << older model.
There is never a T toward the end of the model number in these particular Larger memories,
and NO MARKII's ever have a /X or a MSX !!! in the model # at all!
This fake erroneous numbering scheme was barrowed from the 1G MSPD which has the number > MSX-M1GST/X
and from what I can tell is the only Sony Stick to EVER have the T in that location!
Take the time to look at these links which are both VERY, VERY Informative on the Subject.
Look In Comments for them:
[...]
[...]
You should also know there not just doing these Sony Memory Sticks. Sandisk and Lexar as well as all forms of
flash memories and USB Thumb Drives including Kingston, as well as Many Others are being FAKED....

Sony Memory Pro Duo II - Fast But Expensive Memory for Your Sony Devices
2 Jun 2008
Even though I have been slowly weaning myself off of the newer Sony cameras, I still have some Sony devices that need memory pro duo cards. There are some advantages and a few disadvantages, namely the cost and availability. Sony's memory format averages 30 to 100 percent higher prices for the same capacity of SDHC cards. While that sucks, if you have a Sony Camera or a PSP there's not much you can do about it.
To that point, both the new Sony Cybershot DSCT300 Digital Camera and upcoming PSP God of War Entertainment Pack will benefit from any of these memory cards. Both of those devices, along with most Sony devices for that matter are only comaptible with the memory duo platform.
But like I said, if you need one of these cards, there are some advantages especially if you get a Mark II card. Namely, the performance speed of the mark II format is about 50% higher than the fastest available SDHC card at the moment. The rating is for 36 MB/s and what I've seen through some basic tests seems to indicate real performance close to this. In fact, the solid performance has to be the biggest pro for these cards. So while it sucks to have little choice, when you factor in the premium performance it's easier to swallow.
The 2 and 4 GB cards are a better value than larger capacity ones right now. Sometimes you want the largest card you can get, but till the 8 and 16 GB cards come down I see no reason to buy them. Not to mention, this isn't for my primary camera but for an older one that I use as a backup.
Make sure your device is compatible with the card. Some older electronics aren't compatible with larger capacities, although in general Sony has been better with making these guys backward compatible than others.
It's always a good idea to have several extra cards on hand just in case. This 4 GB card is a nice performer. If you have a high capacity camera (10 Megapixels or more) and are storing videos or RAW images, the extra cash for the 8GB card may be worth it if the price is right. Or you may want to step up to the larger 16 GB size that is now available. But if you wait a little longer you can save yourself some cash. I have to take off at least 1 star for value, but in terms of performance I couldn't be happier.
Enjoy!

Works Great With PSP
25 Mar 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase
This 16GB Memory Stick Duo II card works great with the PSP portable gaming system. It comes pre-formatted, so all you have to do is stick it into your PSP and go. In fact, there is a picture of the PSP right on the packaging.
The usable space on this device is actually 14.9 GB, however.
The "Mark2" certification on the card has to do with higher writing speed requirements and indicates the memory is certified to operate with AVCHD recording products.
