San Diego, Calif. — Sony announced a new line of Memory Stick PRO flash media with increased read/write speeds and a new high capacity of 2GB.

The updated Memory Stick PRO (High Speed) media features capacities of up to 2GB in the standard-size media and up to 1GB in the Memory Stick PRO Duo media size. Both can support read/write speeds of up to 10MB per second.

The new Memory Sticks can also endure a greater range of temperatures, from –13 degrees Fahrenheit to 185 degrees Fahrenheit.

Memory Stick PRO media in 256MB, 512MB, and 1GB capacities will ship in October for roughly $100, $170 and $350, respectively.

Sony will also ship its reduced-sized format, Duo, in 256MB ($105) and 512MB ($175) in October.
