Yes it works fine, firmware under 2.81 aren't supported though

My PSP still runs firmware 1.5 and the 4GB SanDisk ultra II card in it works just fine.

It's the 8GB cards that can cause problems (support for them was added in 2.81).
I have read of issues with running homebrew on them with the custom firmwares as they make use of the 1.5 kernel for homebrew.

Any PSP can use a 4GB card without any problems.

I should add that I haven't noticed speed increase in any way from my 1GB standard (blue) SanDisk card, so if there is much of a price difference I would go with the standard. SanDisk are normally cheaper and generally regarded as having better read/write speeds.

Also, be aware that there seem to be a lot of fake cards around, especially via ebay. These may give you problems.
I would recommend buying from a (reasonably) well trusted site/seller.

Haha, I own two...

Well, I bought the second one just yesterday :rolleyes: (I'm going on holiday tomorrow and I need the space to put movies on...or I wouldn't survive...I'm a total movie geek...)
