Duo only, I'm afraid matey!
So only 64mb available at the moment. 128mb coming next month apparently.
Good news is you get an adapter to plug your duo into the mem stick slot of your device.

Tested what?
I've got the phone, if that's what you mean. Haven't tested the adapter cos I don't have anything to put it in.

I've tested the Duo adaptor in my Sony Vaio computer and it works great. I love Sony and their Memory Sticks. Good thing they included it in the P800.

Isn't the duo memory stick smaller than the regular memory stick? (I haven't seen a duo yet)
If so, when you use a regular memory stick with the converter, does it stick out at all from the P800 or does it fit entirely within the same space?
Thanks |

well the duo is half the dimension of the normal memory stick.. so the slot is half a normal mem stick's size..
so basically, unless u wanna break ur P8, it aint gonna fit in it..

You don't use a regular MemoryStick with the adaptor... You use the DUO MemoryStick with the adaptor, in order to get the DUO Stick the same size as a normal MemoryStick. So you can use the DUO Stick in your older products, which have a normal MemoryStick Slot |
