If you are going to be listening to MP3's, viewing video files, or storing large amounts of anything else, I wouldn't go with anything less than a 256 MB Memory Stick Pro...I know a LOT of people can get by with a 128 MB stick or even as low as 16 MB, but I was surprised how fast I ate up those 256 MB with my favorite tunes...=) I also have saved a couple of Friends episodes on there for viewing on my lunch break at work...can't beat that!

Cheers,
Brady

I second that. :) If you could wait save up for a 1Gig stick.

Yep. I have a 128 MB stick now, and it works, but it ain't enough for my MP3/OGG listening pleasure. :-) My next one will be at least 512 MB in size.

I would definitely get as big a memory stick as you can afford (256MB should be the smallest you consider). It can be used not only for storing MP3s but also pictures you take with your camera and a backup of what is on your Clie. I got a 256MB memory stick with my TJ37 and have to carefully choose which songs I am going to install. My next accessory purchase will be a 512MB memory stick.

New Question, how do you back up what is on your Clie to the memory card? Does this entail the "back up buddy" software? Is this a good thing to have?

Thanks all

off the web?? or did you record it via in port? can a TJ25 handle that since only 11m ram, will it run from card? whar viewing software?

The TJ37 includes for free a program called MS Backup that will let you back up your handheld to a memory stick. I use BackupBuddyVFS which basically does the same thing but you must buy it seperately.

btw, there's an excellent intro tutorial to memory sticks in the "general" forum of this site.
