    Has anybody tried one of these or anything like it in a PSP by any chance?

    Just thought it would be handy for storing games etc.,

    Sounds a bit iffy and more trouble than its worth.
    If you read the back of the box, needs to be formatted first in Sony device, then placed in card reader to copy, delete info.
    Does that mean it can only be used to as read only device on PSP like for films, videos??

    haha, no

    It means that it as to be formated to only work with psp wich you can always undo if you format on your pc...
    These cards are legit, and dealextreme is a good vendor.. these will work on any psp after 2007. This is only an adapter so you would still need to buy 2 x 16GB cards which cost a good bit

    I wouldn't touch Dealextreme with a barge pole.
    Bought some 8gb memory cards off them (all fake) but they will only hold 4 GB even though they say 8GB on them.
    Read on another UK forum a lot of problems with them.

    I have bought lots of stuff from dealextreme, but would not buy memory cards off them as I would expect them to be fake, but have bought lots of other useful bits of junk from them with no problems.

    16gb ms duo pro are about 120 euro, so don't fancy paying that sort of money. 2 8gb micro sd @ 26 euro each might do me!

    But I wasn't expecting the 8GB cards to only hold 4GB! :mad:

    but if you wanted another 4gb card, would you order an 8gb off dealextreme or buy a 4gb locally??:confused:

    If you format you card on your pc you will only get 4 gig's

    Try to format the card with your psp and see if it shows up as 8gb then
