The 256MB one?-Twice the fun, price not too bad..
The 512MB-I need lots of room, my cc's not maxed out yet...
The Gigstick-I plan on carrying an entire library with me , my pockets are a bottomless pit filled with gold dubloons...
Multiple 128's-cuz they're dirt cheap...

256 sounds good to me... however I'll wait 'til other sites and companies start making them and selling for lower price than Sony.

gonna sweat it out a couple of months. i'm betting the other companies will have them lower, rebated, etc.

Work is signing off on the PO, so either way I'm going for the gigastick. A couple of them. :D

512MB seems about right for me.

I'm going for the full gb...won't have to worry about CF drivers, or multiple mem sticks again...

Of course, the CF drivers come out, and I'll slap a gb CF card too...for more MP3s...:)

256 or 512. But then again my NZ90 couldn't play anything more than an hour. LOL.

cus it is not that hard to get two of them for less than one 256. If it is too hard for you to change mem sticks when you need different data, then a PDA is much too complicated for you.

PS if I had gold dubloons there is no way that I would not buy the giga ;)

i already have 9 128mb 8 64mb 256 will do me good i will probably purchase several 256mb 6 or 10 nothing more or higher than that one gb is nice but my fear is if i were to put all my files and applications on that ine stick and i were to lose it or it would get damaged i would lose everything. what i do is put differeht file and applications on different sticks like
game on one
pic on one
Document to go on one and etc. you et point

We got the point, but I don't think a lot of pals out there are 'rich' enough to do that. Good for you ....

I have an NX but I want in on this thread :D

I think that if the prices of teh 512 are good (and I mean good, not reasonable) then I will get one of those, as the 1gb will prolly be too much for me. However, once teh CF drivers come out, I will get a CF card as you can find them for cheaper, and then I would contemplate getting a 1gb one as they are already really cheap. Oh, and ralchizer, I'm sure that many of us on this board are like me-we don't want to carry around 2, 3 or how many other memsticks to use with our device. If you can have it all on one, then why not??

Gonna wait it out for either a price drop or for the cf driver. I coud def use that money towards better things liek a 250gb ext firewire hd or having a great time in Barbados over spring break.

Hmm, 1 gbs sounds very nice. It's expensive, but I don't think that's the problem.

1) It's very easy to loose.

2)Make sure that you get a "SERVICE PLAN" (if they have such), because if the card gets defective, you're screwed (I have several memory cards, some who are almost 1 year and a half old and NEVER had any problem at all with any of them.

But of course I will get one, but maybe a year from now, when the 613613 TERABYTE comes out, then I will buy the a 1 gb for like $4 dolars (and actually pay more for the shipping). J/k J/k.

I would buy them when I get the change... hehehe

I want a 256 or 512. A 1gb-1.2gb VCD movie will recompress at 160x160 in "Long Mode' down to about 100mb. So either 2 movies on a stick.. or all my apps plus one movie on there for boredom times. Is my NZ90 here yet.. is it here yet .. is it here yet, just ordered it yesterday.

The question is, how much time is going to take for Sony to actually release a patch alllowing the mem stick pro to work on the NZ90 after they make it into the stores? I can easily see Sony falling into a situation where the mem stick pros are out in the stores in March, but the patch allowing them to work on the NXs and NZs not coming out until months later.

Maybe I'm just being pessimistic, but believe me, it wouldn't be the first time Sony has committed an offense like this.
