MSDuo Adapters -- different, but does it matter?

My P800 came with a 16Mb MS Duo and the MSAC-M1 Memory Stick Duo Adapter.

And I just bought a 128Mb MagicGate MS Duo, which comes with the MSAC-M2 Memory Stick Duo Adapter.

Well, call me paranoid, but I don't want to lose any "magic" on this new 128MB memory stick, so...

Does anyone know: do you have to use the M2 with the MagicGate? Can you use the M1? Can you use the M2 with the non-MagicGate?

I ask primarily so that I can either throw one into a drawer and avoid confusion, or label the heck out of both to avoid problems.

Thanks,

TC

well, I have 3 duos... the original 16meg, and 2x 128meg magicgate... I just checked all three adapters and they are all "M2" so I dunno where you got the M1 version.

So I have used the M2 with the 16 meg duo and had no problems.

That's helpful -- thanks! I'll just toss the M1 in the junk drawer and stick with the M2.

The P800 I just bought was actually (I didn't realize it) a demo model that was fairly old (Dec / Jan)

When I realized it, I took it back to the shop and they swapped it for a brand-spanking new one.

However, I had all the accoutrements at home, like the mem stick, so those didn't get swapped.

I suspect that the M1 was just part of this early vintage and now they just use the M2 exclusively -- you can't buy the M1 at sony's site any more. BUt they didn't say that it worked with the 16 meg stick.

So again, thanks!

Did you get your P800 in Chicago? If so can I ask where you got it?Thanks

Nick at My Guys Wireless is the best -- when I told him I'd been given a demo model, he had a replacement overnighted and, get this, DELIVERED THE REPLACEMENT TO MY DOOR!

They have all the cool phones and great service to boot.

I learned about them here and can't say enough good stuff -- find them at myguyswireless.com.
