  uhh.. wrong forum.. this is for people to seek advice about their woes...
  
  anyway, sony memory sticks are used mainly by Sony products.. the only ones i've seen are sandisk which makes them too... but for the same price as the sony ones, i'd rather get sony memory sticks...
  
  they are not to be mistaken for the other media like Compact Flash, sd and xd memory thingies..

  That's the problem and what you have to sincerely consider before getting Sony products (i am not against Sony since i myself has got a Sony digital cam) which requires some form of memory or temporary storage device to work. Memory stick refers to Sony, and Sony refers to memory stick.
  
  Sandisk, Magic Gate and Lexar are the few manufacturers for Sony's memory stick, duo, pro etc. And yse they are higher in the price tags as sompared to CF/II, MMC, SD cards etc.

  I won't recommend any Sony digital cameras because of the bulk price of the memory sticks. It's not like Sony's products are that fantastic.
