in I wanna buy it or do it
Hi ,

The cheapest I have found them is for £49.99 with an adapter . I need 2 as they are for mine and DP's Sony PSP's . Or if anyone can find an 8GB one for a decent price I will be interested in that . Thanks very much .

    Here , http://www.memorybits.co.uk/sandisk40gbproduomemorystickadapter-4179.php?manufacturers_id=&products_id=4179

    Ok , it is made by Sandisk but from what I gather they are something to do with Sony anyway , is this true ?

    Nope, totally separate company. However they IMO (and a lot of others) are the leaders in flash technolgy - their Pro Duo cards are faster and more reliable than Sonys as well as being much harder to fake - the main reasons why I use them over Sonys own.

    Can't say I've ever heard of MemoryBits though, although they are available from £2.50 - £5 more from people I have heard of and used before.

    Thanks for the information though :-)

    TikTak, Picstop, MobyMemory and they are only £58 on Amazon.

    I guess it depends if you want to get it cheaper or a pay a little bit more and guarantee they are genuine.

    Or ask in a thread if anyones every used them and see what comes back - I'm sure you can wait a day or two? I'd be interested to know as well.

    BTW is P&P included in that price?

    Thars a good price and if its genuine I dont think you will beat it.

    I buy mine from scan mainly as they are local and I can save postage. prices are good but not as low as the one you have found.

    I didn't think the 8GB cards were available yet?

    yeah , the 8GB ones are about but they are approx £150 upwards

    I suggest you get a 8GB micro SD card with an adapter to use it as a Pro Duo. They sell the card and the adapter separately at MobyMemory for £56.

    Considering that this thread was started in February I am sure the OP bought the memory cards months ago.

    I just bought a pair of 4GB sandisk gaming pro duo's from Play £32 each.
