Is my Sandisk MSPD fake?

I see all this talk about comparing "SONY" MSPD cards, but how about Sandisk?

I was looking at my card, and this is what I see... Back of the card is printed instead of engraved. And it says "Made In China".

According to Sony's card, if it's not engraved on the back, but printed, then it's fake. And Sony's say "made in Japan".

So I don't know if the rules for determining fake memory cards are the same for each other.

I have a Sandisk MSPD 512MB card. The made in china and other numbers/letters are printed on mine; however the printed text is slightly embossed (not engraved). I don’t know whether it is fake or not

um.... reliability?? Some people who have had fake memory sticks either had them stuck because it's a bit different shape, or have had them fail within a short amount of time.
