hi, i am considering to get a Memory Stick Pro Duo and i need some clarification from you all:

1. Would transfer speed affects smoothness of game play? If there is no difference, why would Sandisk releases standard MSPD and 'gaming' line MSPD?

2. Would storage capacity affects smoothness of game play? For example, 1GB card with only 1 game vs 4GB card with many small games plus one large sized game.

3. Besides slower transfer speed of file, how would a fake Sony MSPD affect your PSP experience?

just recently got my PSP Fat (refurbished). It's great in every way except the direction buttons have slight problems. I notice that the (D-Pad)UP, DOWN buttons are not as responsive as my friend's PSP Fat, i have to press slightly harder sometimes to make them 'sense' my pressure. I suspect it's because the factory has used PSP Slim's keypad to replace the Fat's keypad, causing this problem. (D-Pad)LEFT and RIGHT buttons have no problem though.

So i would like to know if any shop can replace the keypad or solve the problem for me in any other way? I appreciate your reply. Thanks.

Different batteries. Slim uses 1200mAh while Fat uses 1800mAh, but fat usually has longer battery life than Slim.
