    for such a low price, it has to be a fake ( poor transfer speeds and no MagicGate compatibility )

    Why????

    This one on Amazon is $7 more

    I'd presume they don't sell fakes and it lists MagicGate (whatever that is). No idea of the speeds.

    It couldnt be more fake to be honest,

    It doesn't even have the Sony logo on it.

    If its anything like the 2GB one they sell, then previous comments about transfer speeds are right, but if you want a cheap card for your PSP for homebrew, etc. its the business!

    Where you will notice the effect of the reduced transfer speed is when trying to play video from it, so no good for that, but a good all rounder otherwise! :)

    Its fake alright! :D

    Not justifying my post or anything, but Amazon don't deliver to Ireland, DealExtreme shipping is free, the for being fake - I have been using a fake 4gb car since Jan 07 between my phone, camera and PSP - never had any issues, even with watching videos (mp4s). The really bad fake is the ones on eBay where they say 4gb and the card turns out to be 2gb or worse! And oh, Sony's MagicGate is a pile of cr*p and I wouldn't buy any device that uses MagicGate! :D.

    Well timed post - just after me! :D

    Well I suppose thats the risk with the fakeys... Luck of the draw! The 2GB ones from dealextreme, that I've had, have not been able to handle the transfer speeds needed for video.

    But definitely worth the minuscule price if you want to bring your music collection, etc. with you! :)

    I'd say it does, they photoshop some of there product pictures. There 2gb one has the sony logo on it anyways (too lazy to go look see if it has it on the product picture!)
