I am looking to buy a 2 gigger but want to inform myself better first. Found them both at about the same price depending where you look. So which is better. Thanks.

which ever one you get make sure you get either the high speed one or the ultra II ones
i have the sony 2gb normal ones right now and i can tell you its slow compared to my san disk 1gb ultra II. slow by like 4X.

Too true m8, sony are absolute shite, high speed my backside.
I bought a sony high speed, sold it after 1 day and bought a sandisk, hell of a lot quicker.

So where are you finding Sandisks and Sonys for the same price?
I've got the Sony 2gb and it's noticeably slower, not that it really bothers me.

I found the Sandisk one at www.ecost.com for 136.00 which is as cheap as I could find the sony. 2Gb that is. They are sold out. Called Customer Service and they said sold out, don't know when they will get more but if you order it now you will get it when they get it. Ordered from them before. My Camera and a couple Memory cards never had a problem so I'm gonna try it. Maybe. Depends on what the wife says 136.00 will do to the bank book.
Finding a Sandisk 2gb is very very very rare in the States. Most places are either sold out or still waiting for their stock that may never come. Unfortunately, there are plenty of Sony 2 gb.

A lot of Sony sticks that you can find on eBay or similar sources are FAKE China ones !!! I tried one that has a write speed of 250KB/s, which is a real pain (like 1 hour to put a 800MB file on it...)

Yes we finally received our stock of the Sony 2GB Pro Duo.
they are the highspeed 80x, but the PSP can't do that speed, which sucks.
so if you need let me know or check out the foundmy.com site.
$155.00 2gb pro comes with the psp usb+data 2-in-1 PC USB cable.

I, unfortunately have a Sony 2GB. If I had my time again I wouldn't go near the Sony products, they are so bad I believe they should be recalled. One word to describe them: SLOW!

with the PSP, my understanding is that when these ULTRA II or 80x speeds came out, the PSP can't handle those speeds. so they just operate at regular speeds with a PSP. i could be wrong, but this is what i remember.

i too have a sony 2gb, and thought my psp had frozen when saving my pes5 file.
I thought that at first too, but i left it and it eventually finished, it took over 3 minutes! That's just not acceptable imho.

can someone give me the exactly name of these slow 2gb pro duo sticks cause in germany u can buy --> MS-M2048S or MSX-2048S maybe they r better.
thx in advance and have a nice day
might as well take the Sony,you have a higher chance of getting an Xbox 360 than a 2gb San disk duo.

Makes me sad seeing all you unhappy people wanting 2gb Sandisk and not been able to have them.
I am in the uk and have spoke to a supplier who could supply me with a 100 2gb sandisk. YES 100.
Any1 interested maybe if i got a hundered people i could sell for about £140 + carriage.

you need to buy 100pcs? ouch.
right now i have sony 2gb pro duo w/ psp 2-in-1 usb cable for $155.00 USD (133 EUR). Next week we will have both Sony and Sandisk both will come with PRO adapter and psp 2-in-1 usb cable for $145.00 (124 EUR).
Your price of 140 was that GBP (approx 244 USD) or 140 EUR (approx 165 USD)?
and that is 100pcs pricing, my god.
