SanDisk announces 2GB Memory Stick Pro
New card doubles the previous maximum storage space offered
Recommend ThisSanDisk Corp. plans to begin selling a Memory Stick Pro media card with a 2GB capacity from February this year, the company announced at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas last week.
The card is the highest capacity Memory Stick Pro yet shown and doubles the maximum storage space offered by the format. The 2GB card is expected to cost around $1,000 when it goes on sale, said SanDisk in a statement.
CES also saw the company unveil the first Memory Stick Pro Duo cards that it developed in-house. Memory Stick Pro Duo is a physically shorter version of the full Memory Stick Pro card and aimed at use in devices where there might not be enough room to accommodate a full-size card. SanDisk said its 256MB and 512MB Memory Stick Pro Duo cards should be on sale during the first quarter at $105 and $225 respectively.
Memory Stick Pro was first announced at CES last year and extends the capacity of Sony Corp.'s original Memory Stick format beyond 128MB although it is only compatible with certain products.
