I doubt the prices are final because Japan and Hongkong got the better deal in terms with the memory cards.

How much are those?

These are the price in Japan(discounted by amazon.jp)

4GB- ¥1800=$23

8GB- ¥2600= $33

16GB- ¥4500= $58

32GB- ¥8500= $109

Seems reasonable enough, though thats with discount, that sounds cheaper than what we have here,  i'll wait for the official pricing.

The official JP PSV memory card prices are: 4gb - ¥2200 ($28 USD), 8gb - ¥3200 ($41), 16gb - ¥5500 ($70), and 32gb - ¥9500 ($121), which falls roughly into line with these prices from Gamestop (currency converted). Although the JP prices already include tax, so JP PSV consumers would seem to be getting the better deal.

And to think I thought Sony was going in a better direction now and not forcing propriety formats on people. I was recently in the market for a camera/camcorder and ALL of Sony's cameras/camcorders offer the ability to use standard SD cards (MS Pro Duo sticks as well), which is why I was considering getting Sony.

These memory card are about the size of micro sd cards, right? It would have been much better for the consumer if they went with micro sd cards as you can get 32gb micro sd cards in the $30-$40 range.
