5 Stars Easy to Remember-Memory Stick
Great, Reliable product. Sony has made its mark and this is one product that you are not simply paying for the name or logo on it, as other products. I bought several of these for my wifes camera for storage. It works and its at a great price you can’t beat at most places.

5 Stars Works great.
Works great with my Sony camera so now I can take lots of pictures. Kinda wish it came with the adapter though.

5 Stars Works well so far
Not much to say except works well. Certainly much better price on Amazon than in stores for a Sony brand.

4 Stars Good
Good for a short weekend trip. Enough space to record a few videos and around 1k pics

4 Stars Memory Stick
It is what it is…A memory stick. It holds about 720 pictures which is more memory than I’ll need. Great product.

5 Stars It made my Acer Aspire One Fly
Short and sweet…

Bought it with my Acer Aspire One to double the OEM RAM.

Made a world of difference!

Ease of installation depends on the computer manufacturer’s instructions and engineering, it upped the speed of a netbook that is used in place of a fully configured audio/video production tower.

Packaging of the product is in that darned annoying thick blister plastic which is almost impossible to open without scissors and leaves sharp edges. Have a few band-aids available.

Looking to put some zip into your netbook/laptop?

Buy this!

5 Stars APPLICATION WAS GOOD
I DON’T KNOW WHAT IT DOES, IT WAS TOLD TO ME THAT I NEEDED TO INSTALL IT SO I DID. THE APPLICATION AND INSTALLATION WAS VERY EASY, SO I GUESS IT WILL DO WHAT IT IS SUPPOSE TO DO IN TIME.

5 Stars Not life changing, but it helps
Bought the Acer Aspire One 10.1″ D250 Kit at [...]. Very nice machine, good feature set and it works. It came with the usual 1-GB RAM installed. OK but obviously only just enough. Acer sort of claims 1-GB is the max the single slot can take, but every Acer hack website says it’ll take 2GB and most say that this is the 2-GB module to use. There is some debate over whether you end up with the full 2-GB or whether the system will only recognize 1.5GB or so. More on that later. I’ve used Crucial Memory several times before for my PCs and it has always been an excellent performer – and for $32, what the hey. So 24-hours after I bought the Acer, I ordered the 2-GB RAM. Was going out of town so I asked for 2-day shipping. The module arrived the next day – whoa! thanks!

I printed out the system specs before I started. Yup, showed 1-GB installed. Took out 1-screw, popped the panel, swapped modules and 2 minutes later I powered up again. Quite a bit quicker to load the OS, but absolutely no indication or messages that anything had changed. Opened a couple of apps, definitely quicker. And, the real reason for buying the 2-GB, I shoot a lot of digi-pics and 1-GB took forever to load the image folders and bring up the thumbnails. The D250 does that a lot quicker now, Checked the system specs again – yup, all 2-GB showing and at work. So, all-n-all, very simple to do, and a distinctly faster machine with no hitches, glitches or hiccups. Still not blazing speed, but a noticeable improvement. May not make me deliriously happy; but the 1-GB would have eventually driven me crazy and I’d have done this out of frustration. A very good experience and a worthwhile investment. And really and truly, anyone can do it.

5 Stars Necessity for 1GB netbooks!
I bought this memory stick for my new netbook and was so glad I did. It was easy to install and there have been no issues with it. I can’t imagine the netbook without it. For a small investment, you can more than double the speed of your netbook. I highly recommend getting this just as other reviewers recommended when I bought my netbook.

3 Stars Overall Satisfied
The Acer works well and has a fast internet connection. The keyboard is small and takes some adjusting. My husband reports the keyboard to be impossible to use — so it seems to work best for smaller hands. The Dell netbook keyboard is much easier to use and does not seem so crunched – but the Dell is also pricier. The keyboard also feels a little flimsy.

User Ratings and Reviews

3 Stars Lacks easy PC interface
It comes with Rhapsody software, which isn’t particularly easy to use. You can’t use iTunes to manage content on your player, which isn’t surprising. Windows Media Player works but even that has it’s drawbacks in ease of use. iPods are much more user-friendly but are about twice as expensive. With the Fuse you can’t sort songs that are on the player, you have to sort them in your library and then import them into the player which is not convenient. This is a secondary player for me (I also have an iPod Classic) so it won’t be used as much.

5 Stars Fantastic
I bought this for myself a middle aged woman to listen to books on tape in the car while traveling for work. It works perfect. Then my kids started borrowing it. Then we did the research we decided that buying Rhapsody and 3 Sansas for each one of my kids was much less expensive than songs for $1.29 on Itunes. The Ipods are in the drawer. Then kids have fun together looking for unlimited downloads. The Fuze is just like our Ipods, just cheaper!!!

4 Stars nice mp3 player for the price
I got this for a gift. It is my first mp3 player. Transferring songs onto it from the computer is super easy. Just a simple click and drag. Downloads are very fast. My computer recognized the player quickly after it was plugged in. I wish the cables for charging and downloads were a different design. The Sandisk plug is big and tricky to unplug when you have the headphone jack inserted. Overall I am loving this player.

5 Stars love the product
I bought this to keep my e-books and songs in a different catagory, I had another mp3 player and I would be listening to a book instead of a song and had to pass the book, to get to a song. It was easy to download everything into it.

5 Stars the best
this is te best mp3 ever i just got it for my son and he loves it. If you have a choice between iopd and sansa choose sansa.

With my 10 megapixel camera, this 8 GB SanDisk SDHC card can stored 2900+ photos, which is plenty for my purposes.

5 Stars SATISFIED!
Just recieved one yesterday and I am so satisfied with the prompt delivery. As far as sandisk is concern, I’m sure it is pretty good one because I have bunch of this SDcards and they’re much still in good condition eventhough they’re not that expensive. So, it is likely that I will recommend this one over and over. Thanks Amazon & JoWOW!
