As Coxy said, it is very likely to be fake.

Don't buy any cheap high-capacity memory stick from eBay since it is almost always fake. If you are very lucky, fake ones will work, but they just won't work very well.

Edit: typo (luck -> lucky)

@hazart

Exactly, I have had two in my time and theyre just crap. Pay the extra, get a real one, and itll last. That my advice.

yeah this is not true. maybe you are the one that should read the sites better.

it can accept 2Gb and probably larger sizes when they come out.

What are you talking about? Wjy don't you read the site. There are lots of esato users using 2GB cards. I have one in my P910i and one in my W800i.

I have 1 problem with my Sandisk 2GB (a genuine one from Amazon).

It works fine if all the files are written using the phone. However, if I take it out and use a card reader to write a file, and I put it back into the phone, the phone can't recognize the memory stick.

Anyone has similar issue?
