Memory sticks for PSP

Got myself a PSP yesterday for my birthday not realising that I would need a Memory Stick as well. So now I need to get one of those.

I was looking on eBay at a 4Gb one which states of the 4Gb, only 940Mb is actually available! Is this correct - could someone clarify?

    Thanks for spotting that. I'm now torn between that and one on Amazon (same brand, 2gb, but "game" version. It's £20.99 but I have a £5 voucher to use...

    Would you recommend that - I'm not a heavy gamer, plus I won't be using it to hold music.

    Any advice greatly appreciated!

    Okay thanks again. I'll probably just go for the "game" one, as it's only marginally dearer than the standard one. Plus I might choose the faster shipping (everythings taking forever just now with the RM strikes)
