And most consumers wont even know the difference if the industry markets them as a 4th or 5th generation SSD as opposed to a new product.

IMHO, this is no different than PMR in the Hard Drive sector. Most consumers don't know that there was a huge breakthrough in the way the data is stored inside. All they know is 1TB drives are around $100 and you can get them at any store that sells computers.]]>Feb 9th 2009 3:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/02/09/toshiba-makes-progress-on-feram-still-no-tangible-product-in-si/http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/09/toshiba-makes-progress-on-feram-still-no-tangible-product-in-si/]]>Feb 10th 2009 10:01AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/02/09/toshiba-makes-progress-on-feram-still-no-tangible-product-in-si/http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/09/toshiba-makes-progress-on-feram-still-no-tangible-product-in-si/Feb 10th 2009 4:00PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/02/09/toshiba-makes-progress-on-feram-still-no-tangible-product-in-si/http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/09/toshiba-makes-progress-on-feram-still-no-tangible-product-in-si/Feb 9th 2009 3:10PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/02/09/toshiba-makes-progress-on-feram-still-no-tangible-product-in-si/http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/09/toshiba-makes-progress-on-feram-still-no-tangible-product-in-si/Feb 9th 2009 3:17PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/02/09/toshiba-makes-progress-on-feram-still-no-tangible-product-in-si/http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/09/toshiba-makes-progress-on-feram-still-no-tangible-product-in-si/

FRAM isn't going to replace flash for bulk storage, its too large when the memory size is greater than 1Mbyte. FRAM will replace flash and EEPROM in embedded processors where a modest amount of non volatile memory is needed.

FRAM actually improves with more read/write cycles!]]>Feb 9th 2009 5:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/02/09/toshiba-makes-progress-on-feram-still-no-tangible-product-in-si/http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/09/toshiba-makes-progress-on-feram-still-no-tangible-product-in-si/
