Where are you from? Different countries have them at different prices.

a sony shop here in the phil sells their 512mb for 150$ and the other one still with 512mb sells for 180$, they told me it was the high speed ms duo pro variant, kinda pricey here in our country.. btw, will the high speed ms duo pro work in a k750?

So far I've found the following places:
http://www.mobilefun.co.uk
http://www.sandisk.com or .co.uk (can buy direct)
http://www.mobymemory.com
http://www.unbeatable.com
http://www.picstop.co.uk
http://www.geeks.com/details.asp?invtid=SDMSPD-512-A10&cat=RAM
However, Sandisk aren't too far off releasing their "Ultra ll" Pro Duo cards, which run a hell of a lot quicker, although as said above, not sure if these will work in the K750i (would have thought so).
Ebay and Amazon are also selling some off cheap, however you usually end up buying from 'someone' rather than direct.

Got mine from Amazon (well, it's in the mail...). Sandisk 1GB. $116, minus a $30 gift certificate for signing up for a credit card. Bought it in the U.S. tho. |

I have been using a Sony 1Gb Hi speed pro duo for the last 3 weeks in k750i and it works fine.
Also used a Sandisk 512 pro duo and that works ok too.
Couple of good value sites I have bought pro duo cards from are below (they even have lower prices than some idiots selling direct on ebay!)
http://www.digimem.biz
http://www.flash-memory.co.uk
(whoa, just had look now and flash-memory have the new Sandisk 2Gb ultra II cards in stock if you have some money buring a hole! - I read somewhere that sony will have 4Gb cards out by end of the year but don't know how compatible they'll be with k750??)
Both are recommended.
Cheers

@ max99
do the words "vested interest" ring any bells? :¬)
seriously, I have found ebay prices on memory cards to be, shall we say, not quite as good value as the sellers would have you believe. that plus the fact many of them sell from overseas tends to put many people off. |

Well I got my Sandisk 1Gb on ebay, shipping from GERMANY to Belgium for 104 EUR (that's about 69 pounds) INCLUDING shipping costs, can you find me a better deal? Me don't think so

@turt
two things you forgot about us poor bleeders in the UK...
1. Import duty
2. VAT
And the sandisk 1Gb you talk about can be bought for around £85 here in the UK if you look around - so I think you'll find it's about the same price you paid but without the associated risks of grey imports - what will you do about the guarantee when the card fails !?
