    Using “Memory Stick®” media
    What is “Memory Stick®” media?
    “Memory Stick®” media is a new compact, portable and versatile Integrated
    Circuit recording medium with a data capacity that exceeds a floppy disk.
    “Memory Stick” media is specially designed for exchanging and sharing
    digital data among “Memory Stick” media compatible products such as a
    digital video camera. Because it is removable, “Memory Stick” media can
    also be used for external data storage.
    “Memory Stick” media allows you to exchange data between your CLIE
    handheld and your computer or a digital camera that supports “Memory
    Stick” media. To exchange data via “Memory Stick” media, your CLIE
    handheld uses the supplied Memory Stick Gate (MS Gate) software.
    Types of “Memory Stick” media
    There are two types of “Memory Stick” media:
    • “MagicGate Memory Stick” media equipped with “MagicGate” copyright
    protection technology. “MagicGate Memory Stick” media is distinguished
    by the 
     logo.
    • “Memory Stick” media that is not equipped with “MagicGate” copyright
    protection technology.
    Your CLIE handheld supports both types of “Memory Stick” media.
    To play back OpenMG audio files, however, make sure to use “MagicGate
    Memory Stick” media.
    To play back MP3 files, you can use a purple regular “Memory Stick” media.
    (You can also use “MagicGate Memory Stick” media. )
    What is “MagicGate”?
    “MagicGate” is a copyright protection technology for “MagicGate Memory Stick”
    media and compliant products, such as your CLIE handheld. Authentication ensures
    that protected content is transferred only between compliant devices and “MagicGate
    Memory Stick” media, and that protected content is recorded and transferred in an
    encoded format to prevent unauthorized copying or playback.
    Note on using “MagicGate Memory Stick” media
    If you use MS Gate or Windows
    ® Explorer to copy a protected file onto a “MagicGate
    Memory Stick” media or if you handle a folder containing a protected file, the file may
    be disabled. To handle the copyright-protected file, use a “MagicGate” compliant
    application such as OpenMG Jukebox.

    Inserting and removing “Memory Stick” media
    Insert “Memory Stick” media into the “Memory Stick” slot as illustrated
    below.
    Note
    Insert “Memory Stick” media in the right direction. If “Memory Stick” media is forced
    in the wrong way, it may be damaged.
    To remove “Memory Stick” media
    Make sure that your CLIE handheld is not writing to or reading data from
    “Memory Stick” media.
    Push “Memory Stick” media gently into the slot and then release it so that
    “Memory Stick” media pops out. Then pull it out from your CLIE handheld.
