P900 with Sony MS Duo Pro???

3 replies · 2,244 views · Started 09 December 2003

I realise this subject has been discussed before but couldnt find a recent thread. Has there been any more info released about whether a firmware update will allow the P900 to use the Pro sticks and thus 256MB and 512MB sticks?? Or are there plans to produce regular duos with higher capacity?

There are but they will not work with the P8/900 with one exception. A dual-chip 256MB duo (effectively 2 128MB duos in a single card) will work. However, in order to access the extra 128MB, you'll need to remove the card, flick a switch and re-insert the card.

Have you any knowledge of where to obtain DUO Selects now?? I believe there are none in production or released commercially yet.. Moreover, I don't believe there's been an official press release pertaining them.. All I have heard is speculation from mobile electronic expos... This is an example of the only memory stick "select" that is available to-date.. Sandisk and Lexar also manufactures one.. However, I don't believe this stick type has been made to support DUO devices as of yet...
