MultiMediaCard to MemoryStick Adapter?

Posted by Cliff on from the translating-the-hardware-signals dept.

Philipp Markus Alexander Schmid asks: "Does anyone know if there exists a MMC to MemoryStick adapter? There is this wonderful SonyEricsson P800 which comes with a memorystick duo slot. I'm currently building a MemoryStick standard to MemoryStick duo adapter for the phone (because of the non-existing availability of the duo). The next step would be an MMC to memorystick duo adapter, but is there a device or chip that can convert on the fly between MMC and MemorysStick?"

    reverse-engineering of the operation of a Memory Stick, because Sony only discloses its specifications to their partners, with huge loyality fee. Frankly I'm not sure how big the loyality is, but you don't see much non-Sony Memory Stick compliant stuff around do you?

    However, at the risk of being accused of spreading FUD, I believe one might violate DMCA by reverse-engineering it. Ask your lawyer.
