Frys.com has the Lexar Platinum II 8GB Memory Stick Pro Duo for $45 + $0 shipping = $45 shipped. Slam it into your Sony Digital Camera or PSP for 8GB of bliss. Maybe load some movies, or ISOs or something.

    Hmm. again I question why is this here? Amazon has the Sandisk 8gb memory stick pro duo for 33.99 + 3.99 shipping or 37.98 and this is not a discounted on sale item.

    http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-8GB-Memory-Stick-Pro/dp/B000UZH7P6/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1232317705&sr=8-1

    Guys, before you go for seemingly good deals here. Do yourself a favor and check pricegrabber or cnet's shopper, for best prices. Or even amazon.

    #2, do you really think Ghetto Dogs only go one place to look for deals? I love Ben's, but we know he doesn't have the scoop on EVERYTHING...Jeez.

    I have this chip (paid more a few months ago), but no matter what I do it won't format to more than 3.45GB. Some of the true gurus have no clue.

    ???

    #1, I have a couple of them, they only work for microSD cards up to 2G (no SDHC). But for that they work great.

    Actually this isn't a deal, the price is high compared to what it has been lately. Not long ago it was $29, and the last price I remember it was $35 with free shipping.

    #4. Where did u buy your card? If from ebay it may be fake...Not being able to use the full capacity is one of the signs.

    even though this is not the cheapest price I have seen, I still consider getting one.

    dx 17789 will turn any microSD card (up to 16GB) into an MS Pro Duo, for $5. Skip the Sony premium!

    What you have to do is format it NTFS (Windows), (HFS+) Mac, (ext2/3) linux.
