Edition:4GB Model
A full game to download is between 2GB and 3GB, so if you are planning to buy any games or any download any free demos from the PS store, make sure you think about memory first.
a 4GB card is 3822MB free space.
Save games are all of the order of ~20MB.
Free games (e.g. solitaire) from PS network are all around 300MB.
Demo (2 mini games) of Little Deviants is 1033MB
Demo (1 race) of Wipeout 2048 is 556MB
Demo (1 level) of Rayman Origins is 927MB
Its very easy to max a 4GB card with a few of demos or one game download.
Food for thought.

I think this memory card is good, it is very small so don't try to store it separatly (if you take it out of your Vita) as it would be easy to lose.
The only problems I had with this is that 4GB does not go very far, so I'd recommend a larger card, for example Resistance: Burning Skies DEMO was almost 3GB alone. The only other price is that it's expensive, although this didn't bother me as I got it for free in the bundle with the console.
Overall it's a nice card, I'd just recommend the largest size you can afford.

When I first entertained the idea of buying a Vita the glaring problem of memory card prices put me off BIG time, but I eventually bought this very sweet piece of kit... my tips as follows, along with facts.
First off, don't buy the 4GB card if you have slow broadband(which I doubt most people have).
I bought Uncharted with my Vita, and this requires only 64MB for a save.
Trophies and stuff that you unlock are stored on-line, so saves *can* be deleted once you complete a game.
All your Vita games will be bought from shops, so if you want to demo a game before buying one, the biggest demo will be around 1gb, just make sure you have the space. Delete unused demos, as remember if you want to play any demos again you can just re-download them which will take about 30mins for most people.
What I'm saying is that most of your games will be Vita games, and they come on their own card.
Personally I think I will never need a bigger card for at least 12months, as once I've played a demo enough, I either buy the game or not, either way the demo gets deleted.
Finally, PSP downloads... this could cause space problems. I have my eye on Eternal Blue, which takes up 822MB and costs just £9.99. I have two options, as there really is some great PSP titles available. I can buy 2-3 at a time and store these on my 4GB, or I can be sensible and buy one and finish it or get sick of it and delete it(remember save games remain, so I can re-download the game in the future and continue where I left off) and download another.
This 4GB is all you need if you have a good Internet connection, and don't mind doing a bit of file management(delete unused demos, videos, psp games etc...).
If you're unfortunate enough to have slow broadband(is there such a thing?) then get the biggest card money can buy, for the rest of you - this is the saner option in my opinion.
EDIT:

Due to the availability of full PS Vita games at good prices on the PSN store, you WILL need a bigger card if you decide to download big files.
I still stand by this being big enough for the reasons I gave - just buy the games second hand to save money and space.

PS Vita memory card 4GB Model.
The PS Vita card supplied with the package could not be recognised by the Vita and did not work. I had to purchase another one and then everything worked

PS Vita Memory Card 4GB
Is very useful if you want to save your games, but if you want to download the games you need a bigger memory card

Great, tiny little memory card. I just wish they were a lot cheaper and made by third parties. I now have two.

Not big enough
I know it seems silly to say that this card is not big enough because 4GB is 4GB in the end of the day. Read more

Great memory card
Despite the fact you have buy an separate memory card for your PSVita it is still big enough to add any add-ons (if you are using only flashcards) you like.

Rip off
Like most Sony bespoke stuff this is massively overpriced . The Vita was bought as a gift and requires this card to give full functionality. Last time I buy a Sony product.

Expensive
Seriously why does Sony persist in these ridiculous bespoke formats that are expensive to buy. It's a terrible experience and just another reason to not buy Sony products. Read more
