Memory Stick Applications in the P900

Any number of Memory Stick Duo units can be used with a P900, providing virtually unlimited storage
opportunities. Here are the main applications:
•
Additional storage for pictures taken with the CommuniCorder
•
Images from the CommuniCorder can be transferred to other image-aware devices such as PCs
and printers.
•
Transfer of data and media (sound, pictures, video clips, documents etc) between the P900 and a
PC or Mac
•
Save data and media from the P900 on to a Memory Stick, for example to make backup copies of
important files.
•
Transfer of data and media between P900s.
•
New applications may be installed from a Memory Stick.
•
Third party applications can make use of Memory Stick storage.
•
Data can be transferred over SyncStation between a Memory Stick in the P900 and a connected
PC.
•
Personalize the P900 using media on a Memory Stick, for example ring signals, alarm sounds and
pictures of contacts.
•
Use media on a Memory Stick when composing MMS messages.
Specifically, the following built-in applications are enabled to work with the Memory Stick: CommuniCorder,
Pictures, Video Player, Music player, E-Mail (attachments), Viewers (e.g. Word), MMS (media), Browser,
Phone (ringtones, screensaver), Contacts (pictures of contacts; ringtones).
Compatibility with other Memory Stick devices
The P900 defines its own folder structure on a Memory Stick, within a vendor-specific area and this is the
only area that is accessed by all of the P900 applications, except for the File Manager. The File Manager
may be used to move files between the P900's MMFH (Multimedia File Handling) system and folders placed
on the Memory Stick by other devices, thus allowing files to be shared between the P900 and other devices.
Memory Stick connected to a PC
Using the supplied Memory Stick Duo Adaptor, the P900's Memory Stick Duo may be inserted into a
memory-stick enabled PC or camera.
In the example below, the Sony Vaio PC locates the Memory Stick on the S: drive. The memory stick is new
and has been initialised by the P900. Note that some capacity is taken up by the filing system.
