Mine is exactly the same description as 007 k750's 512Mb Card. It works fine and fits in perfectly, but I had my doubts when I noticed that the writing on the card is just slightly lop-sided. It works perfectly so hopefully it will stay that way!

I've heard many rumours recently about fake memory sticks from China.. so i got paranoid and all since I did not buy it from a Sony authorized seller. I hope you guys don't get tricked buy naughty sellers! Many would do anything just to sell these days..
Sometimes I feel its better to buy from a Sony Shop or dealer. The extra cost could guarantee the originality and you would feel better too. I know, like me, people with thin wallets often search for cheaper products; would that pay off if it turns out to be fake?? you'll have to waste your time crying to buy another one and it will obviously be from a Sony store.
Just watch out you guys.. I heard the fake ones live up to 4 months.. and they die.. I got a 1GB sony mms hispeed pro duo.. and I hope its not fake! |

I guess China figured it would be a good sell due to high demand from new Sony products including PSP, k750i, w800i and future upcoming phones. |

Mine was a fake 1GB sony pro duo high speed (the pics i showed you earlier)... Fake sony mem. sticks are poorer in quality... i see lots of cracks on the memory sticks already after 1 month and i assume they're caused by ME inserting the stick into my k750i??:S Basically it was breaking apart!!
Sony confirmed with me yesterday that it was fake, so i went to buy another Sandisk 1GB pro duo for gaming.. with a more reliable dealer.. |
