haha i didn't ask it like that. sry for the confusion. I was rhetorically asking him.

Well, my friend's memory stick allows him to access the entire 8gb of the memstick, so even if it's supposedly "fake," it still works properly. He already used up like 5gb. I'm going by its official. I know the fake ones won't let you take up 8gb, but only like about 2gb.

16gb is available but its $250 ouch! its like buying a new psp

Hey there

I got meself a 8GB microSDHC Card (40€) and a MSProDuo adaptor (3€).
Thats a lot cheaper than buying MS....
My PSP (phat 3.71-4 with 1.5 Kernel Addon) wasnt able to format the Card, so I formatted it with Windows to FAT32.
It works like a charm in both 3.71 and 1.50 Mode an d with Homebrew and backup-ISOs. I experience a slight initial lag in XMB Menu, also a slight initial lag in dircetory-view under IRShell:I wonder why, maybe its the now 'much larger filesystem' wich needs more time to get parsed - i dunno, but then again its hardly noticable. Loading times are neither longer nor shorter but saving (writing savegames) became extremely fast. Data transfer from PC to PSP is slow as ever...no change here, but its extremly fast in my card reader....
I woudlnt buy a MS anymore - they are way too expensive...
