Does anyone have a microSD to Memory Stick adapter like the one from the link? Specifically, I wonder if it accepts the SDHC cards, i.e. microSD cards over 2GB, and how well it works with a PSP.

I've searched the web and there seems to be no mention of compatibility either way.

If it works, that would rock as I'd have a common card format for my camera (with a CF to SD adapter), PSP, MP3 player, etc. It is like the mini holy grail -- invest in only one set of memory cards for everything.

Its like any memory card it should fine. But i ask why not use the memory stick since you can get a 4gb for like 100.00 with tax and an 8gb for 150 and the 16gb for 300.00 really soon.

Micro SD cards are cheaper. For example I can get a 1gb micro sd for $10. 10 X 4 = 40 :)

i think deman70 wants a memory card for his psp and if your like me i don't think he would want to carry a lot of memory stick that can easily brake.

And i thought microsd cards were more expensive than that. I bought a 2gb card from verizon store for my phone and it cost me 50 dollars but the ones i saw at circuitcity was like 70 dollars. I didn't know they were cheaper, but where exactly do you look.

that's way too much for a 2gig microSD. i can find them for $30 for a 2gig. my 2gig sandisk was on sale for $20, and that was before 4gig microSD was out; basically a steal at the time.

got a whole lot more to list . . .

There is a place where i live called microcenter. They have a lot of good deals the micro sd i bought is a kingston micro sd. I bought two. One for my girlfriends nokia cell phone and one for my samsung digital camera. I know it might be a cheap brand but so far no problems. I know that carrying a lot of sd cards is inconvenient but if it saves money than Im fine with that. I dont know how big micro sd cards can get but has to be cheaper than the same size sandisk or sony pro duo.

a 4gig sandisk microSDHC is only $10 cheaper than a 4gig sandisk pro duo. you might as well go with the pro duo since it's guaranteed to work.

microSD can go from 512mb, 1gig, 2gigs. microSDHC go 4gigs, 6gigs, 8gigs.

Actually, a big motivation for using a microSD, besides being alittle cheaper, is that I can also use it in my camera, MP3 player, etc. MicroSD is just so much more flexible for me. If I am on vacation, I can pull the memory from the PSP if I need it for more pictures, etc.

Well thanks to everyone about the prices about these memory cards. I guess where i live (Houston TX) its more expensive. Owell atleast its a one time thing and was only for my phone.

But with microsd you probably can use it for everything , but if your like me and have a lot of sony stuff (3psp, ps3, sony camera, sony laptop) and they all basecally use memory stick you kind of get use to it and stop complaining.

The prices on MicroSDHC cards has actually gone down quite a bit. You can buy a 4gb card for under $20, and an 8gb for under $50. Wish I'd looked at this stuff before I bought my 2gig pro duo for $35.

8 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820211270

I believe the only cards that support class 6 are the 4gb ones however. I've only ever been able to find class 4 8gb cards, and I think I heard somewhere that ms Pro duo is faster than class 4, so that may cause some problems. Also make sure any adapter you try to put one of these into supports SDHC and not just normal SD format, the photofast adapter linked above specifies that it does support it. But anyways I have heard that SOME of these adapters do work in PSPs, but then some don't, so make sure to do a lot of research before you buy.

I found this adapter that my frient bought to work fine.

http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.12177

I only had an older 2GB microSD and it was obvious sometimes that it is slower than my Sandisk 4GB pro duo, but I bet that if I had a fast microSD, it would be comparable to the MS.
