i hope you all understand that ist very possible that a 256mb or a 1gb stick will probably cost more than a p800

The price is not that important !!!||

People want to know if the max of the P800 is 128mb ???? !!!|

I want to know that also, if it is capable of supporting 1 gig... Thats great !!!

It is only 128Mb at the moment, but I'm sure with a firmware upgrade or whatever it will be able to support more.

What I want to know for sure is if the Magicgate Memory Duo stick will actually work in all devices that use the normal blue memory duo sticks as it seems to imply in my post a little further back.

This would be helpful so that I can go ahead and buy a Magicgate Duo when I get the P800.

NO NO NO.

The DUO technology can only go up to 128 megs. if u want bigger memory sticks then they will not be DUos and will not work with the P800 period!!! There is no way to upgrade the p800 to make it read bigger sticks because p800 has a duo memory stick reader and 128 is the most that duo technology can hold.

GOT IT!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

Is the duo's limit to 128mb dictated by the current specifications of the memory producers or by the MSDUO standard? Just wondering if there are going to be MMC/SmartMedia adaptors with DUO connectors?Maybe there would be something like SE Bluetooth Audio Player -for memory storage? Have You seen the SE HBM-30-Wireless Handsfree with Digital Music Player? I'm waiting for HBH-50 -BT Handsfree. Regards! Peter This message was posted from a T68i

Hiya,

The P800 WILL NOT take a MagicGate stick even though they show the image of one! There is a small print on page 31 of the newest White Paper:

http://www.clubsonyericsson.com/products/p800/p800_whitepaper.pdf

There are a few documents on the net that refer to the P800 taking 1Gb eventually too.

Hey..

I just had to reply to this.

Zoidy, I must say that your are both wrong and right..
It's correct that P800 doesn't support the copyright protection mechanism that's available with the Magic Gate memory stick.

But you can use on P800, for it's possible to use the stick as a storage for pic's, doc. etc...

that's what I get out of the text in the white paper that's released from SE...


Yours.

Onegin.

Hiya,

Yeah, thats what I though, it's worded pretty badly. Great, at least I can have a 64Mb card when I get my phone then
I actually saw the January '03 White paper which is a LOT clearer! It does take the Magicgate sticks . Page 42 :

Duo sticks can in theory be op to 2GIG in size, Normal sticks could go to 4GIG.

As tightly stated above 64MB is now available but 128 is on the way but larger sizes are alredy roadmapped. Sony has got a bit of a fight on it's hands now as SD cards are going 256MB and beyond and they have a Roadmap now (and perhaps more important is that SD cards are supported my many companys where as MS are traditionally only found in Sony kit)

For more info see : http://www.memorystick.org/e-index.html

For now, 128MB is a requirement, 16 is useless and frankly a bit of an insult (even the 3 year old MP3 player for the T68i came with 32)
