Micro Memory Madness - Sony's new Flash Memory Format |
Listed in: Accessories, News Tags: new releases, new sony flash memory format, psp accessories
As if the massive amounts of Memory Stick formats weren’t enough, now Sony is complicating matters even more by adding a new design into the mix – the Memory Stick Micro (M2). About a quarter of the size of the PSP’s Memory Stick Duo, the main feature that Sony is touting on this one is its “controlled eject function to prevent users losing the media”. So in order to make it harder to lose they’ve made it even smaller? Genius.
What does this mean for the PSP? Given that the M2 has been designed as dual-voltage media, it is compatible with the Memory Stick Pro line of products so we could see a “Duo Adapter” at some point in the near future. Even more appealing is that thought that the release of a new format will drive down prices on the expensive Memory Stick Duo our PSP’s desire. The M2 will be available in 256MB and 512MB versions in March, with the 1GB stick following behind in May.

A device meant to use FAT16 will in no way be compatable with FAT32, both are different paritions and are not compatable with each other. So it makes no sense for them to make 8GB duos. its not worth the problems of using FAT32.

Good thing to know is that you have to take out the battery in the cell phone to access the memory card. And even then its housed in a metal holding that you have you pull open like a door and the media slides out of the door.
Its also very very expensive. Not worth the money.
