@lulu,
I don't think that the hardware is an issue... the Duo Pro has been created to be backward compatible with old hardware. All MS Duo hardware reads/writes in serial mode, all MS Duo hardware is compatible.
Firmware is the only issue.

like i said, it may have been a updated firmware that made it work i didnty get a chance to see tho so i dont know, and they dont even let me write or take pics of anything.
Anyway, SonyStyle in America is not selling them! So where did you get the stick???

This is not true if you believe what MemoryStick.com is writing... they clearly are saying that NOT ALL deveices MsDuo will be compatible with MsDuoPro.... take a look at this :

and look for compability. Like you cna read.... no always compatible

@lulu,
I'm familiar with the site, and the facts... it doesn't mention hardware in the smallprint anywhere. It does say...
"Firmware or software upgrade makes it possible for some products in specific product categories to make use of the high capacity of Memory Stick PRO media."
This simply means that some items can be upgraded (e.g. hopefully the P800) and others can't (presumably because they can't accept firmware updates).

Just out of interest, how much memory do people feel that they need?

Currently, I'd be happy with 512MB. If there were a stick that worked, I'd buy it.
I currently just have my original 16MB stick, and I don't use my P800 to it's full potential. Even if I bought a 128MB Duo, it wouldn't be enough, so I haven't bought one. I might buy a 256 if it worked and I couldn't get a 512.
Can't be bothered with the swapping about lark either.

I think I need more that 128MB, so I do need about 256MB! I only have about 10mb left at the moment on my 128mb card. I would like to store about 30 mp3s (enough for say 2 hour train journey) plus all the other apps, ebooks and MS Office documents for viewing.

I'd really like 256mb, to fit in lots of music and still have space for some video, bucketloads of apps and anything else I might want. With 128mb you could have two hours of mp3s at 128kbit, but little else.

Chaps, the new Duo 128mb MSs (i.e. MSH-M128A) are as low as UKP59 now on eBay. Given that they are just reaching the market - these things are likely to get even cheaper. Now given that
http://www.expansys.com are claiming that the 256mb will be UK90, I suspect the 128 mb MS may get as low as UKP50! May be worth buying another one just for MP3s if the 256MB cards don't work with the P800.
Stop press: Duo 128mb now down to UKP54 on eBay
