Get as big as you can afford man, I went and got a 1GB memory card last week when I stared doing stuff to my PSP and now its full. I never thought I could fill it so fast, but I did, and now I want to get a bigger one.

What are you looking to put on your memory stick? Like what kinda homebrew apps, how many game, how much music.

well to start just the needed homebrew files to run. I want to add an nes and snes emulator. and as for games, for nes i want to put on blades of steel. for snes i want to put on rock n' roll racing, earthbound, nba jam TE, and donkey kong country. For psp games I have no problems putting one or two on then taking them off and putting others on when I need. I have the 2gb dual pro or something to that effect and I am aware it has about 1000 writes to it so I have a warranty on it.

A 4 gb is overall best choice.

2gb is probably good enough for what your looking to throw on there. It will hold a few different emulators with all the games for that system and 1-3 games and a few songs. 4gb will just hold double that...So if you got deep pockets then you can go with the 4gb, but i'd say 2gb is good enough for what your looking to do with it.

I have two 1gb memory sticks and I'm doing just fine... and TRUST me... I have TONS of homebrew lying around. It isn't much of a hassle to hook up to the computer and change things out once in a while. Usually when I need space I can clear it easily. But if you are someone that wants to put video/ music/ photo + homebrew, then I'd suggest either a 2gb or a 4gb stick. Both are quite cheap on www.newegg.com ;)
