oooooohhhhhh shiny! *drools* looks really good, but now i just gotta raise the funds ahah

anybody know if this stick loads quicker than datels 4g brick?

[RetroGoth]

oh man this looks nice. So much hd space but I'm saving up for it. It's going to take me a few weeks to a month for that.

Actually, CanadaComputers.com offers it for what I would say is cheaper. I just bought one a week or two ago. 4GB SanDisk, $199 I beleive, this is Canadian Dollars, and this is without s&h so yoñ can pick it up in the store!! Well worth it, quick to load, and tons of storage.

This particular MS (blue colored) will no doubt be faster than Datel's HDD but still too slow for my liking. The SanDisk Ultra II's are the best Pro DUO's for the PSP. They are FAAAAAST! And very reliable. No corrupt data or reformat needed once in a while like soime sticks.

Take a look. This is what I will be getting. It is the ultimate PSP memory stick. (Until the Extreme III's come out)

Wow, very impressive at only $159. I just might get one.

i saw this when i was shopping for a new memory card after someone stole my 1gig.

i knew i didnt want a 4gig cus 2.50fw > = space errors w/ devices that store more than 2gig.

so, i went to modchipstore.com and saw they mixed up the bulk-buyer's price for the 2gigs with the 512mb's. so i got 2 2gigs for $102 :D

however.... data transfer (PC --> PSP) is slower than a.... umm.. cant compare it to anything, sorry ;) its just too slow

how much in english pounds?

Umnnn... I dunno what kind of a deal you think you got or what mistake you think was made but a 2BG memory stick actually IS $102~$114 now.:rolleyes:

For that datel hdd question... Yes it is a good bit faster than the HDD and there was some homebrew I've tried that just won't work very well with the HDD at all but everything works with the memory stick. As with what Sterist said... yes it does seem a bit slow to write something from the PC to it. Wish I had and ultra II but couldn't find any :(

[Sterist]

didnt ask wut it is now lol

that IS wut i got 2 for. like i said, they mixed up the bulk buyer price of a 512mb, and it was 50.49 each. they fixed it like 12 hours after i ordered

edit:

they actually had the 2gig mixed up with the 512, and the 1gig was mixed up with the 2gig.

when they "fixed it", they swapped the 2gig back to normal but the 1gig had the 512 discount. then it got fixed a third time and bulk buyers dont work for anything under 1gig now

confusing? lol

[cdrdj]

Ahh, so nice. I remember a few months ago when the price for the 2 gig was higher than this. I think it was more than buying a psp initially. Good to see the prices going to quick.

(In Canadian Currency, so you American's have lower prices:p )
In a bit over a year, the $80 512mb stick is now $25
The $160 1 gig is now $40 (THANK YOU COSTCO!)
The $200+ 2 gig is now ~ $70 (PriceGrabbers.com - Sandisk Ultra II for 50 U.S.)
AND NOW, the $400+ 4 gig stick is only about $200 CDN!!

Few more months and that 4 gigger will be about 100-150. Can't wait!! (No point getting 8 gig since i still using 1.5)


how much in english pounds?

It's about 88 pounds.

That's the Sony MS. The Sandisk MS are actually a lot faster, even faster than the Sony High Speed MS.
