Product Description
The Memory Stick PRO format was designed to realize continuous real-time recording of high capacity high-resolution moving images. In addition to its theoretical maximum transfer speed of 160Mbps, a main advantage of the Memory Stick PRO format is its minimum write speed of 15Mbps as a format standard, which will enable continuous real-time recording of high-resolution moving images. Furthermore, the minimum write speed of 15Mbps will make it possible to design more reliable moving image recording devices capable of preventing data loss in the event of sudden power loss or accidental removal of the media during file recording.The new format includes the MagicGate copyright protection technology as a standard feature providing secure protection for commercial and copyrighted content. By fully utilizing an embedded intelligent controller unit, the Memory Stick PRO format will also enable prevention of third-party access to personal data. Tentatively named "Access Control Function", the new protection technology will form the base of a high-level security system for Memory Stick networking features. As an advanced new generation media format, the Memory Stick PRO offers future expandability allowing it to evolve to bring new, exciting applications and benefits to its users.

Hardy little memory stick. Stores tons of pics/movies. Using it in a Sony camera. I think it's a great price right now, too.

MagicGate is Anti-Consumer December 28, 2003
5 out of 8 found this review helpful

Almost 500 bucks for this card and it tells me what kind of files I may and may not save to it? What kind of removable storage is that? I'm sorry but I'm not willing to take this kind of leap into control from the likes of Sony. I know there are hacks out there to reverse engineer the thing but I'd rather go with non-proprietary stuff that's cheaper and does what I want without the up-front fiddling.

No Magic Gate Protection Needed December 10, 2003
2 out of 6 found this review helpful

I love my gig stick! I use it all the time for NX 60 Clie. After a quick downloaded patch from Sony's website, it works perfect. I did need to buy a new card reader for it, but that was a small price to pay for all the mp3s and jpegs I can fit on this bad boy. Don't be fooled and think you have to mess with Magic Gate. I am not sure if you can use Magic Gate or not, but I know you don't have to. I just copy the songs to palm/program files/MS_AUDIO/ directory and listen away. The only down side is this thing is almost $500 and I am always afraid to lose it!

This won't work in pre-2003 Sony devices, as Sony made a design mistake on original memory stick (and kept its consumers in dark). Neither would existing card readers work.

These sticks contain MagicGate protection. This means that you won't get even 954 MegaBytes of actual space from this 1000 MillionBytes stick. MagicGate uses up significant space (100MB) and create all kinds of hassles in transfers of things like mp3's.

But wait that's not all, these sticks are kinda obsolete already. These won't work in any SonyEricsson cell phones or smaller Sony devices like Stick Walkman & newer U series Cybershot cameras.

If you want to invest in sticks buy a MS Duo Pro, the latest of half a dozen stick formats from Sony. (Soon most cell phones will have a slot for removable flash media) Or you can say no to all Sony devices and buy SD/MMC based gadgets to avoid all these hassles.
