It was about a year ago that we first heard of Sony's 8GB Memory Stick PRO Duo. The 4GB and 8GB sticks were announced during CES 2006, and both were slated to be released some time during 2006.
2006 came and went, and only saw the release of the 4GB stick. It looks like we'll soon be getting our 8GB sticks; Sony has announced that the stick will be out in February of this year for $300 USD. So when SanDisk announces their 8GB Memory Stick that will of course be better than Sony's, expect it to be in the $250~$275 USD range. We'll keep our eyes peeled.
Just as a side note, the Firmware and Homebrew Capabilities Guide reminds of us of a vital point related to this Memory Stick's capacity: you will need firmware 2.81 or above to use it. As you can see on the chart, support for Memory Sticks larger than 4GB was added in firmware 2.81. |
