Summary: 5 Stars
this is THE product to buy for your PSP especially if ur going to travel abroad in a few days like myself. this would actualyl be my first time looking forward for the plane ride, now that i have so many things to do w/ my psp. ive already compressed 2movies (trying for the 3rd) and also added some extra "things".
1gb around here costs OVER 118$ n more w/ tax, so 99.99 is the best deal one could ever find(w/ no taxx!!! or at least mine was).
if ur very cheap n patient, i certainly dont recommend waiting for the sony 1gb (which is selling for a whooping $5 cheaper) since who knows when anyone will receive that(i hear people have been waiting for since april and yet they still dont have one). Also to top it off, somewhere on the web, someone compared the speed of a sandisk 1gb and a sony 1gb. and by conclusion (with graphs using different file size transfers)it actually showed that sandisk was WAY better/faster than Sony. Fortunately i saw this after i received my purchase so it boosted my euphoria towards my good judgement. also, it fits movies and music with ease; though u got a keep in mind that the battery wont last tooo long, so remember to stay near an outlet, or carry n xtra pack. oh and for those whose curious bout the "flaws" the other reviews mentioned, dont bother, you would have to try really hard for that to happen, cuz mine works like a charm.
overall, 1gb is VERY useful towards a long trip (visibly and coherently). one product for sure you wont regret!! (unless your looking into buying a 2gb....and many batteries for that!)
hope this long personal opinion helped!
Customer Review: your PSP will render this stick USELESS... will break it.

The following info is regarding PSP compatibility (as stated "compatible with PSP" on the package)
First, I've used the card for not any longer than a few minutes, and it completely died during a data transfer of music... at about 100MB into the transfer...
2nd, tried reading/using card on 2 separate PCs, with 2 separate memory card readers... neither would read the card, and windows xp pro would just freeze up trying to access the card (pulling the card out of the reader would unfreeze windows explorer)
3rd... the packaging clearly states "PSP Compatible"... now... if if that was true... why would SanDisk also sell the "Memory Stick Pro Duo Gaming 1GB" for 50% more $ than this one?
answer: because the "Gaming" version is better quality, and hence won't crap out while using it in your PSP... and in fact, it's the ONLY memory that is TRULY compatible with the PSP...
I'm sure Sandisk knows about this issue, and it goes to show the exaggerated use of "COMPATIBLE" ... yeah... sure it's compatible... compatible for only about 9% of the stick's full capacity...
Customer Review: What to Consider...
Summary: 4 Stars
When I buy flash memory, I consider price, speed, manufacturer and vendor. I got this particular memory stick for a SonyEricsson w810i phone. I paid extra to get it from Amazon (no they don't always have the best price). This way I am confident that I can return it if I got the wrong one or have a problem with it.
The card works fine in my phone, and since I have a USB cable that hooks up to the phone, I don't have to be concerned about removing the card to use a card reader. I have not yet experienced any problems with Sandisk memory products.
I am told that the Sandisk sticks are faster than Sony's, but I have no way to confirm this, nor do I know if my phone (mp3 player, camera) is able to take advantage of faster speeds. The longest process is transferring music to the phone, and I wasn't in a hurry anyway.
This stick comes with an adapter to use with the older memory stick format, so I can use the 128mb stick that I replaced in my Sony Camcorder (which had a 4mb stick in it. No, it's not a typo. It's actually a 4 megabyte memory stick).
Customer Review: PSP & Sandisk Products

To answer the other comment/reviewer, a PSP is the Sony Playstation Portable. They were released here in the USA in March 2005. It was released in Japan late 2004. Not sure about the rest of the world. The PSP uses memory stick duo media for a variety of purposes, most noteably video, music, and game data.
As far as the product, Sandisk products have been great and I've never seen any compatibility issues with Sandisk versus Sony media, so go for the best price. However, if you have a digital camera that supports high speed transfers, you might want to get the Red Sony High Speed since it supports that high speed transfers. To my knowledge, only Sony, not Sandisk, makes the high speed transfer version. However, from what I understand for PSP usage, you do not need the high speed; although, you can use the high speed in a PSP from what I've read. It could make transfers using a card reader quicker even if not the actual accesses with the PSP.

Hello, I recenly ordered the Sony MSX-M1GS (black) Card then after waiting 2 months and card still had not been shipped I ordered the SanDisk Version. The card was fine at first I was able to use it in my digital camera and take photos, view in PSP, and so on. It also let me playback videos I converted for the PSP. But the problem started when I tried placing purchased music from Sony's Connect Music Store using SonicStage. It let me transfer music perfectly when I used the included 32MB card it would let me place purchased music and other ripped music. on the 32MB card it also let me place both ATRAC(3) and Mp3 files. But on the 1GB it won't let me played the protected music even though it states MagicGate supported! And if i try to copy regular (CD ripped) music over with the program it wont compress it using ATRAC, instead just dumps the large mp3s right into the MUSIC Folder. Don't get this card unless you don't care about your music!
