Using “Memory Stick
®
” media
What is “Memory Stick
®
” media?
“Memory Stick ® ” media is a new compact, portable and versatile Integrated
Circuit recording medium with a data capacity that exceeds a floppy disk.
“Memory Stick” media is specially designed for exchanging and sharing
digital data among “Memory Stick” media compatible products such as a
digital video camera. Because it is removable, “Memory Stick” media can
also be used for external data storage.
“Memory Stick” media allows you to exchange data between your CLIE
handheld and your computer or a digital camera that supports “Memory
Stick” media. To exchange data via “Memory Stick” media, your CLIE
handheld uses the supplied Memory Stick Gate (MS Gate) software.
Types of “Memory Stick” media
There are two types of “Memory Stick” media:
• “MagicGate Memory Stick” media equipped with “MagicGate” copyright
protection technology. “MagicGate Memory Stick” media is distinguished
by the
logo.
• “Memory Stick” media that is not equipped with “MagicGate” copyright
protection technology.
You can use both types of “Memory Stick” media. Note however, that your
CLIE handheld does not support the “MagicGate Memory Stick” technology.
You can use “MagicGate Memory Stick” media with your CLIE Handheld as a
standard “Memory Stick” media.
Note on “MagicGate Memory Stick” media
If you use MS Gate or Windows ® Explorer to copy a protected file onto a “MagicGate
Memory Stick” media or if you handle a folder containing a protected file, the file may
be disabled. To handle copyright-protected files, use a “MagicGate” compliant device
such as Memory Stick Walkman
® , or a Sony VAIO computer with “MagicGate”
compliant application such as OpenMG Jukebox.
