Jap site Impress Watch (http://www.watch.impress.co.jp/av/docs/20060728/sony.htm) has took both the Sony and Sandisk cards for a performance test and Sonys cards performed miserably compared to their rivals.

Now with that in mind why would you pay anything from $70 to $100 dollars more for a 4GB Card when you can buy Sandisks card for $147 (http://www.superufo.com/product_html/SONY_PSP_SanDisk_Memory_Stick_Pro_Duo_4GB_w__Adapt or.html?aff_id=24).

Nice to know that Cheaper is better sometimes :)

Yeah, it seems that Sony would rather pilfer your cash than give you quality goods :p

I suspected it as I have had both, but thought it was just my prejudice to Sony. Thanks for clearing that out.

Sandisk are just a better deal. They are made off the same or better quality then Sony's and you get a better dollar to mb ratio with sandisk too.

Known this for a while now.
Before buying my 1GB Sandisk MS I found on the net a test between the 512mb MS from sony and those from Sandisk and also a test with the 1gb Ms from both companies..
Sandisk outmatched sony on both tests and by a lot.

Yes, this is a shame. Sony's PRO Duo sticks don't match the quality and performance of SanDisk.

This is a shame, I sort of wish it was the other way around. If Sony does not profit too much from PSP hardware sales, at least the widespread homebrew use on the PSP may have helped by everyone buying larger memory sticks. But everyone is buying SanDisk, not Sony. Oh, Sony why couldn't there have been a large INTERNAL storage feature for the PSP?

Owell, at least PSP commercial games are starting to get really good.

Meanwhile, I'm saving up for a 4GB Ultra II PRO Duo from SanDisk
