The Amazon review says "Reads and writes Memory Stick media to a USB port with Optical Mouse functionality". This is not true. I ordered this item and it arrived at my location on the other side of the planet today. It isn't a mouse. I wanted a mouse with a memory stick reader as part of it. I wasted my money and it will take too much money effort to send it back. Now I know that I should have ordered the MSAC-US70. I rated the product as three stars not because of the product itself but for the incorrect information provided by Amazon. The product is still in the package as I write.

This is a great way to store photos or mpeg movies. It is small enough and works great most of the time. I have a small problem
with it, it does not always read.. My camera says "no memory stick available" when in fact it is in my camera. not sure if it is a memory stick problem or a camera problem...although I will purchase again.

Just to clarify the previous negative review, yes this 256MB memory stick pro is not compatible with many older devices, but I think sony is doing a good job at addressing this .. they have a separate product, a 256MB memory stick with memory select, that is basically an old style memory stick with two switchable 128MB memory banks. I have several older mem stick devices and am happy that they are offering this product that allows 256MB for older devices. Search for "MSA128S2" for more info.

you people need to realize that this is a Memory Stick PRO, and not
just the ordinary kind. All memory stick pros won't work on your old cameras, so don't review this stick as bad just because you didn't notice that

Ok, so I go into Best Buy to buy this thing which I bought for my son and have no idea what it does. So when I get it home, he takes his Memory Stick from his camera and sricks it into the reader. He has to do a project for school so he saves his project onto the stick, takes it to school, prints it out, and he gets it. Good idea if you don't want to spend huge $$$ for flash drives.

if this card were to magically appear in my pocket i would be exstatic. provided of cours that i had a sony device. its small, it works, its durable, and there is a good amount of space on it.

however, in the land of thing not magically appearing in my pocket, there are a lot of cons to this memory stick. for one, its exspencive. another reason is that its only good for sony products. yet another is that you have to use this little switch on the thing if you want to use it to maximum capacity. on the other hand this might... might, provide a usefull organizing tool for some.

in any case, if your looking for a memory card for a sony product that you've already bought, then this is a good buy. but if your looking into buying a sony product let this card be a deterent (not a big one mind you, but if your down to two competing products, then i would say go with the other one).

Good memory stick, handy and small, of course. There is a switch on it to switch from side a to side b. The switch is really tiny, so if you have big fingers, you might have a little trouble. It seems a little flimsy and is really tiny to use, and also to read the lettering. I wouldn't recommend it to someone that forgot their reading glasses. It is a timesaver,and a spacesaver, and there aren't really many other options for those of us who can't use the newer memory sticks.
All in all, a good product.

An amazing service considering you delivered to my country, at the end of the world (Chile).

This saves time and battery life. Use it over again and again- just like a floppy disk drive. Buy Sony original products and you'll be safe- don't save a few pennies by buying generics, you get what you pay for. Recommendation: Strong Buy

Very nice and convenient but a little dim past 10 feet or so.

I've used this light a lot since purchasing it and it has worked well in most situations that would cause chroma noise in dark environments. Use little battery power but is surprisingly bright in short range shooting, say up to max 10 ft. Combine with a Sony camcorder's Program mode for Sunset/Twilight and you can get good, clean and decently lit video.
