You mean they are proprietary cards and not SD cards? Another FAIL on Sony's part if that is the case. I actually liked most of the Vita's features and where things were heading until seeing this, but I suppose as long as games can be bought at retail on cartridges or whatnot then I'm fine with whatever internal memory they have.

Yeah, Vita will use it's own propriety memory cards.

"As the Vita is a Sony product, these memory cards are proprietary, and you’re forced to buy specific Sony-branded merchandise.

According to a new press release, there are four different memory card sizes due for release in Japan alongside the Vita in December, and you can expect to pay a premium for your megabytes.

 

The 4GB model is 2,200yen (approximately $29), 8GB 3,200yen ($42), 16GB 5,500yen ($72), and if you want to go the whole hog, a 32GB style will set you back 9,500yen ($124). "

The prices for the card as of now are outdated, almost all of the online retailers in Japan have lowered the price.
