so 2 summarize
p800 will take and accept magicgate duo's no problemo, it just dont support the DRM magicgate bit of em,
the duo format is roadmapped to go up to 2 gig - this was released inadvertently by sony a few months ago on the web site, incidentalyl it also showed the normal mem stik's will be goin to 5 gig ain q3 2004 !!
i think that answers everyones probs !

The duos will go higher. The whitepaper I've read said they will go as high as 1 gig. But now I'm reading from you guys that the p800 won't support higher than 128?
I will write to se about this....

contaygious is right...MS DUO will NEVER go aboove 128mb. The road map which you mentioned and the whitepaper are now outdated. MS Duos were supposed to go to 1gb but they can't! Normal memory sticks will only go up to 256mb now, and even that's not a true 256mb stick, it's two 12mb sticks built into one with a switch to change between them. The only memory sticks that will go above this are the new MS Pros, which currently have 256, 512 and 1gb sizes, with a theoretical max size of 32gb. MS Pros will not fit into the P800. Hope this answers a few questions!

So the 128MB limit is a P800 hardware limitation? What if they make 256 MG Duos? Those won't work? Why not? If the 64MB MG Duo works, why shouldn't the 256MG Duo?
I don't think they've reached a physical limitation on the size of the chip just yet.

no the 128mb limit is NOT a P800 hardware limitation. MS DUOs will never go above 128mb - white or purple

Hi,
thats funny, I could swear that it says in the P800 whitepaper that the Duo will eventually go to 1Gb! Oh hang on, yep, 'roadmap for 1Gb Duos in the future'.

I'm going to buy an old p800 for 50 bucks; did anybody discover, in last 5 years (!!) which actually is the maximum capacity of external memory p800 can support?!?

P800 can only support up to 128mb memort stick duo by standard means
there was a replacement back cover you could get at one time which provided support for standard size memory sticks (rather than duo) which meant that you could use the 256mb memory stick select. This was a memory stick (not memory stick pro) which had 2 banks of 128mb in the one card but you had to switch manually between them
