Memory Stick is specially designed for exchanging and sharing digital data among Memory Stick compatible products. Because it is removable, Memory Stick can also be used for external data storage. Memory Stick is available in two sizes: standard size and compact Memory Stick Duo size. Once attached to a Memory Stick Duo adapter, Memory Stick Duo reverts to the same size as standard Memory Stick and thus can be used with products compliant with standard Memory
Stick.
