SanDisk expanded its Memory Stick Micro line by introducing a 4-gigabyte (GB) card. With the capacity to hold up to 1,000 songs, 2,000 high-resolution photos or 20 hours of MPEG4 video2, the 4GB M2 is compatible with Sony Ericsson’s latest generation of slim line, multimedia mobile handsets such as the Cyber-shot and Walkman series. The SanDisk M2 card line is designed for use with mobile handsets that have an M2 slot. By using an optional Memory Stick PRO Duo adapter, M2 cards are fully backwards compatible with all digital cameras and hand-held game players that have a Memory Stick slot.
This new card M2 measures 0.59″ long x 0.49″ wide x 0.05″ high, or 15mm x 12.5mm x 1.2mm.
The 4GB M2 card will ship to OEMs in May, and will be available in retail stores later in the year.Pricing is not yet determined.
