Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Sony MSX1G 1 GB Memory Stick Pro
Customer Review: good enough for government work
Summary: 4 Stars
Hardy little memory stick. Stores tons of pics/movies. Using it in a Sony camera. I think it's a great price right now, too.Customer Review: Don't waste your money!
Summary: 1 Stars
This won't work in pre-2003 Sony devices, as Sony made a design mistake on original memory stick (and kept its consumers in dark). Neither would existing card readers work.These sticks contain MagicGate protection. This means that you won't get even 954 MegaBytes of actual space from this 1000 MillionBytes stick. MagicGate uses up significant space (100MB) and create all kinds of hassles in transfers of things like mp3's.
But wait that's not all, these sticks are kinda obsolete already. These won't work in any SonyEricsson cell phones or smaller Sony devices like Stick Walkman & newer U series Cybershot cameras.
If you want to invest in sticks buy a MS Duo Pro, the latest of half a dozen stick formats from Sony. (Soon most cell phones will have a slot for removable flash media) Or you can say no to all Sony devices and buy SD/MMC based gadgets to avoid all these hassles.
Customer Review: MagicGate is Anti-Consumer
Summary: 1 Stars
Almost 500 bucks for this card and it tells me what kind of files I may and may not save to it? What kind of removable storage is that? I'm sorry but I'm not willing to take this kind of leap into control from the likes of Sony. I know there are hacks out there to reverse engineer the thing but I'd rather go with non-proprietary stuff that's cheaper and does what I want without the up-front fiddling.
