Question: Will a SanDisk Memory Stick Pro work in my PS3 without an adapter?

I just got a 4GB SanDisk Memory Stick Pro but it did not come with one of those silver adapter “sleeves”. I’ve seen Memory Stick Pros before that came with adapters but found out that was only a temporary promotional thing. The new Memory Sticks don’t come packaged with a free adapter. Will a SanDisk Memory Stick Pro work in my PS3 without an adapter? I can’t return it if I open the package, so I want to be sure before I open it.

Answer: The memory stick duo (as used in phones, and PSP’s) comes with a sleeve to make it the same size as the standard memory stick, the Pro is already that size, thus no need for a sleeve.

If you have a 20GB or 40GB you will not have the flash card slots and will require a USB adapter to read them. A USB reader costs about $10. If you have a 60GB or 80GB you have the required reader slot built in.

Question: What stick of memory capacity is good for my PSP?

I have to buy a PSP Memory Stick to my son. What capacity is sufficient for my 11 year old? I feel I only need to save their games and some music videos. I do not want to spend much money right now. Please advice.

Answer: I personally recommend the 4 or 8 GB. When I had a 2gb, did not meet all my games and movies. I bought my 4GB for $ 20 on eBay. 8GB is only $ 10 plus shipping and free 2GB is $ 10 less. If you do not want to spend much money, get the 4 GB or 2 GB. Games and videos are archives large. Most people age on their memory cards and ask for more capacity. Most adolescents stores a lot of things like 1000 songs on your iPod. The increased capacity, the better. Get the SanDisk brand rather than Sony. It is cheap and has a faster transfer rate. Some memory cards from Sony are false, and I try to avoid them. http://www.forevergeek.com/2005/08/sony_vs_sandisk_psp_memory_sticks_battle/

Question: How can I use my broadband mobile card on my Mac Mini?

I use a Verizon pcmcia/pc card in my laptop for my internet connection. I also have a Mac Mini at home but no pc card slot. Since I have open USB slots, do they make an adapter? They seem to make every kind of card reader but pcmcia. I don’t want leave the laptop on with internet file sharing just to use my Mac online.

Answer: You are right, there is not a decent PCMCIA to USB adapter.

PCMCIA is a dying form factor, and if you can exchange your card for a USB modem, that would be the way to go:

If you are stuck with that verizon pcmcia card, your best option is to stick it into the Kyocera KR2 EVDO router that allows you to share the EVDO connectivity with multiple computers either via airport/wifi or even ethernet.

however, if you are able to exchange pcmcia for USB, you could get one of the less expensive portable cradlepoint EVDO routers, like this CTR350 ($100 less than KR2):

I have pictures from my cell phone into a mini SD card. I a SPA-550 SEPIA Multicard Reader, which accepts CF MD, MS MS PRO, MS Duo MS PRO Duo, SD, MMC, Mini SD, SM and XD Card.

I do not want to want to break my mini card SD or get stuck in the reader. Can not find isntructions that comes with the card reader. Anyone know?

Answer: Everything you need is a data cable for your phone (for phone-USB). I think it is very simple.i! is a very great with this cable. good luck!
