Best place to buy memory for PSP

[phishhead220]

I have a 2 GB card I got with my PSP but I want to upgrade since I have a few games I purchased from the PS store. What's the cheapest place to buy reliable memory? Also what brand is best?

Thanks

Here's a deal I found last week:

It's back up to $90, but if you are patient, it may drop again. Although, it took a while for it to get that low; I waited since last November, when it was down to like $67 or so.

I suggest to instead get a Micro SD card and a pro duo adapter, WAYYY cheaper, and works just as well. Micro SD is about $60 on tigerdirect for a 32 gigger and 25 for a 16 gigger (which at this point I doubt you need much more than that). Although they do no include the adapter you can usually get one for really cheap, although they usually come bundled with one. Actually if you check newegg.com right now they have a 32 gig one for $50. Or here's a 16gig with a pro duo adapter for 35 on tigerdirect

And yes this works, I use it and it works great, and I know I'm not the only person on here that does this because of this same discussion last year when this was brough up and I suggested it and a bunch of people thought it was a great idea.

Shoot, too bad I didn't know about the pro duo adapter. But I concur with Gden, if you can get the same amount of memory, and it works just as well as MemoryStick, at a cheaper price, go for it.

Also, if you ever sell your psp, you can use the microSD with a phone.

This week Fry's has the HP 16G microSD w/SD adapter on sale for $17AR. I think tomorrow is the last day for the ad. The microSD to pro duo is anywhere from $3-$5 from places like Monoprice, Meritline or Amazon.

That's an interesting way around the expensive pro duo. I'll think about it.

Go for a microSD card in a pro-duo adapter. I now have 16GB for under $20! Got it from Amazon. I haven't noticed any read/write duration differences compared to my 2GB Lexar pro-duo card.

Go to Sears. They have 4GB Sandisk MS Pro Duos for $2.
