[wraggster]

News from Divineo China (http://www.divineo.cn/php/affstart.php?affcode=arboretum&prod=)

The 512M and 1G memory stick Pro Duo from SanDisk are now both cheaper than ever, and quality is just as good (if not better as seen on many product review) than the official Sony version.

I got my 1GB duo from Best Buy for $74.99 after $10 rebate, my friend is pissed now since he bought a 256MB for $50 :P

[ForteGSX]

HAH... We got a 1 Gig Sandisk Ultra II for $93 (Yes American). With shipping it was $103.50. So Ha... No kidding either...

[shadowprophet]

On the psp launch day.They had sony 256 meg memsticks at the store I bought mine. It ran me 86 dollars :mad: And there where no other options. Just what came with the psp and those 256 meg cards at the time, Talk about a scam :mad:
86 dollars for a 256 meg memstick:mad:. Yeah I felt stupid!
I felt stupid even as I bought it. But the will to have some storage space right at that moment I got my psp was far to great to pass up :(
As luck would fate it to be. I still have this card. Now ive got a 32 , a 256 , a 512, and a one gig. And damnit! as much as I paied for them,people will be prying them from my cold dead hands before I give em up :p lol

[Fly On]

I used to work at a small computer shop, and the owner still lets me use the 35% empoyee discount. However, I've only bought one 512M stick, cuz that's all need. Too many stories about bigger capacity sticks screwing up ...

BEWARE: All the people I know who have a corrupted memory stick all bought the SanDisk brand. Mine is corrupted too. =[
I can't format it either cuz my pc reads it as write protected and my psp gimps up real bad if I even put it in at all.

I bought the Sandisk "gaming" brand (it was actually cheaper than the regular) but really there isn't a difference. I've had no problems at all, it's possible you just got a defective memory stick which does happen alot. If it happened to me I'd return it to the store if you still can, or return it to Sandisk (they give you a 5-year warranty on the cards).

Well, you and your friends have terrible luck. I have thrown just about everything you can at my 1gig Sandisk Pro Duo. I havent had any problem with it. A lot of people that I know that have the same model, too, havent had any problems either.

Your sig is pathetic as well lol. Just thought I'd throw that tidbit in for ya. ;)

I got a sandisk and performed all sorts of risky maneuvers with it without a corrupt stick. I did the swaploit multiple times before the kxploit was found, I've run out of battery in the middle of rom play, I've accidentally thrown my PSP into sleep mode multiple times in the middle of a ROM, and still no corrupts....I have a 512 meg Sandisk stick which I got for a bargain.

I orderd one from there just now, I can't wait to really put my PSP through the gambit. I've been doing plenty with the 32mb one that came with my psp, but I've been dieing to try some of the larger homebrews and watch a movie or two on it :P

Outpost is surprisingly cheap, I've never gone there really but I got to fry's irl once in a while, I got the stick for 79.99 like you said, and advanced wars:ds for 24.99, with overnight shipping for 11 bucks. Not bad, I can't wait for it to get here.

[big_radu]

Isn`t 70$ a litle much for a memory stick?

[o0sambo0o81]

Just ordered mine off of outpost.com, i cant wait for it to get here! :)

Seriously Wraggster.

what the **** does this have to do with "PSP EMULATION" so that it belongs in the psp emu forum.
if i was a moderator i would kick your ass for missplacing posts and whatever.
dont get me wrong.. i like the dcemu sites and the board but its really annoying with the "anarchy" =) in the forums.

95% of all the posts in "psp emu" dont even belong in "psp emu".
