im 90% the HK one's a fake. Ive seen too much fake stuff going around here where i live- the hologram, the size and the print quality on the packaging itself; reading through your original posts felt like you were trying to check who can tell which one's fake and which ones can be easily fooled

Yeh I too think my k750i is a fake...the joystick stopped working so it must be fake eh!
I got given a 1gb card as the guy who had it said he didnt want a fake card...it works for me and fits just fine. I personally do not care if its fake or not since it does the job.
However if i paid for it....I would be a bit P****d off

Just to finally clear things up with my cards. Both cards were very similar, that is evident. The packaging is similar, the icons arranged differently perhaps and that is almost it. Both cards started to split open after perhaps just six "ins and outs" of a phone, PSP, card reader. The writing also started to wear off after this period of time. Another thing is that the size of available memory decreased everytime I put it in and took it out of a device. Then they stopped working.
Apparently any Sony memory card that has the PSP icon on the top right, with japanese writing underneath it is fake. My new genuine 2GB Sony memory stick pro duo is perfectly fine. It came from Amsterdam airport. It has French writing under the PSP icon and under the English writing. It is not "high speed" either. The writing does seem to be on "labels" but looks fine. Due to the number of times its been in and out of my devices, the writing on the back as worn off. The available space has been consistant and not dropped at all. The front writing has not worn off, nor has the card split open. The packaging also states it has a 5 year warranty and many little booklets. Also on the back of the packaging there is a little bit where you can rip open the plastic, quite like that on a tookbrush.

Just got mine from EBAY and according to research i've done it's also fake. I still didn't open it and don't want to. I want this bustard will give my money back. Anyway... i have researched all sellers that sells 2GB cards and all of the exept maybe 1 are FAKES.
Bottom line DON'T BUY THIS CARD ON EBAY TO SAVE SOME $$$.
Cheers.
