Hi, well, this is hopefully going to be helpful to people somehow
There are loads of FAKE Sony memory stick pro duos on eBay and even in Amazon so beware!
Here's a good guide from aussieram on how to detect FAKE memory cards : http://reviews.ebay.co.uk/FAKE-Sony-Memory...000000001535763
Well, I wrote this since I was a victim of buying a FAKE one from Amazon UK so I just wanna spread the info. When I read aussieram's guide, it made me think if mine was genuine or not. I went to a Sony Shop near my flat and, voila!, I found out that mine was fake. At first I was not quite convinced until I saw it myself. Ultimately, what made the difference was the TRANSFER SPEED on the cards.
The link above should give you enough info on this but I have included my own pics for additional info. Also, these pics are for the 4GB memory pro duo.

The hologram: FAKE is TOO SHINY compared to GENUINE; FAKE DOES NOT have a VERTICAL LINE in the hologram.
