Anyone know the answer to this?

Somewhat puzzling a 2mb memory stick is compatible with the PSP which has also been released, but the k750/w800 can only take 1GB max.

Also puzzling with the N91 round the corner, which has a internal 4GB hard drive.

You are probably talking about 1GB/2GB memory sticks.
k750 and w800 supports the MSD Pro specifications to 100% >> 32GB

I've been using a 2gb memory stick in my K750, and also the W800 when I had it, for quite some time now without issue so please explain why you believe they don't work?

well when manufacturers announce phones they usual list compatibility with what is currently available or announced. Clearly they cannot say it is compatible with accessories that have not been announced even though they almost certainly will be

Esato and other places get their details from the manufacturer specifications.

I got another one recently (Sony branded though there is no difference from Sandisk) on Ebay for £110 +£13 postage which I though was pretty good.

I've looked on Ebay.com as opposed to the uk site and found loads of 2GB one's really cheap from the US. The RRP prices are ridiculous for them. Thanks for your help Mr M

no worries. I got mine from fastmemoryman, and yes, from US.

I see he has reduced the price by £10 to £102 but upped the shipping to £26 so its still about the same price.

I notice quite a few ebay sellers piling on the postage price rather than the item price. Its against ebay rules but it saves them end of auction fees I guess

Yeah, noticed that as well. It's mainly the sellers in the Far East though
