There is no available firmware upgrade for Sony Ericsson P900 to enable support for Memory Stick Duo Pro.

Sony Ericsson P900 supports the filesystem FAT-16 used on Memory Stick Duo, but not the FAT-32 filesystem used on the Memory Stick Duo Pro. We have no information about if any future changes will be made.

..So it is actually possible for an upgrade

if anyone fancies experimenting it would be interesting to try....

formating ms duo pro as fat16 and try on p900. I dont know what the smallest size pro is but it may be worth a look.

just to try and please some people I have done all this and more with the Sony 256mb and 512mb duo pro's that I use for my camera. I have stated many times in many threads that none of it works

please give up this dream that duo pro will ever work in P800 and P900

sorry masseur. my thought was that it might be an addressing problem with the larger sticks being out of range. I dont know if they make a 128mb pro stick.

the difference in fat format would/could be a hardware incompatibility and the size problem could be a firmware incompatibility. it was just a thought anyway as I was curious but dont actually need a larger stick (yet).

cheers

no 128 pro duos.

Something as simple as this has been tried countless number of times. Nothing can be done full stop.

It's a hardware issue AND a software issue. So it never gonna happen

people interested in this topic might find looking through what is available at www.memorystick.org and to a lessor degree, www.memorystick.com interesting
