Thanks

S-E's spec says the max is 2GB, but 4GB works fine, and SanDisk
acknowledge this fact. Be patient, wait for the 8GB cards to show up on
SanDisk's website and see what their compatibility information says then.

Found something on sony site that says max supported is 8GB. Guess I'll wait
for a bit until we have a definitive answer from someone using one.
