Which 1gb Memory Stick Duo Pro is faster?

[phillai]

I've got the opportunity to buy a Sony 1gb Memory Stick Duo Pro High speed for the same price as a Sandisk yellow PSP compatible 1gb Memory Stick Duo Pro...

Is the Sony high speed actually any faster or not over the Sandisk one?
Should I get the high speed Sony one?

Someone tells me when formatted the Sony one has more space. Is this true?

Someone please advise me!

Thanks to all replies!

I haven't noticed much of a difference between a 1Gb Sandisk (blue one admittedly) and a 1Gb Sony (Black) High Speed one (I assume the one I have is actually the high speed one as it was supposed to be). I presume the USB determines the speed of the transfer of stuff. I don't think there was a difference in the amount of space.

I saw a comparison review on a site like Cnet (or one of the other tech-comparison places) that reviewed the two. Apparently the Sandisk stick had faster transfer speeds, and I didn;t see anything about the Sony one having more space after formatting. Going with whichever is cheapest is probably best!

the speed only applies to writes on the card and HS devices like cameras and cam corders, if its for your PSP any Duo will be fine.
