Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it, follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!
What the hell is my PSP doing to my memory card?

So with the welcome back promotion I'm hitting a bit of a snag with my PSP.
Having never aspired towards being a big digital consumer, and knowing that the format was retarded, proprietary, and dumb, I only purchased a 2GB memory stick to go with my PSP-2000.
I've deleted everything except 1 save game per title, and a handful of minis, and I still only have 1.2 GB free - short of what I need to download LBP.
I don't want to lose any of my save data, so I'm reluctant to go to the format step - but it really seems like i'm missing a few hundred megabytes on this card.
Is there any way on device of via my Mac to examine the card and figure out what it thinks its spending all the space on?

Those still have the USB out, right? If you have a mini-USB cable you should be able to plug it into your USB port. I'm not sure how it works on Mac, but on Windows it mounts the contents of the flashcard like a drive when you plug in the PSP.
If you do want to format, you can copy the ms/psp/savedata folder out to keep all your game saves safe.
Problem solved.

I've got stuff on my memory stick as well, and it's only 1 GB anyway. I can't afford a new one yet, however.
Do I have any options to secure the games I want (LBP and MNR, for those curious) without having a place to immediately store them? I would rather not miss out.
You can get them off the store now, you just keep an installer sitting on your PS3/PC until you are ready to put them on your PSP
In the PSN store on your PSP choose your free game then choose 'Add to Cart' then select 'View Cart' and choose 'Proceed to Checkout' Now your PSN account owns that game and you can choose to download any PSP games your account own later from 'View Downloads' also up the top right corner of the PSP PSN store screen.
If you have a PS3 or Windows PC with Media Go you can download the game now to tranfers to your PSP later when you have a new MS Duo. You can also use Media Go on PC to backup your save files and Games to make room.

Just giving you a heads up: http://www.amazon.com/Sony-Memory-Stick-ProDuo-MSMT4G/dp/B0013AX2JM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1308607289&sr=8-1
4GB for $15. You can't beat that!
Cool, thanks! You, too, Elliotw2!
Wicked; I hope they'll deliver to Canada.
And I hope the price stays steady until I have money for it. I am literally wiped out in any payment method which Amazon will accept.

Apotheos: Awesome, I might get one of those when our checks come in (lousy strike... argh).
One small problem has occurred to me, however: if I get a new stick, I would like to be able to copy the contents of the old to it, but I'm not entirely sure how the best way to go about that would be. Any tips?
All you really have to do is copy the contents of one card to your computer, format the new card on your PSP so the proper folders are built, and drag everything back where its supposed to go. I've done it myself.
