I am told that the big consumers of flash parts are MP3 players. The 
market there demands ever bigger parts. This was the reason why in 1999 we 
hoped that FLASH parts would grow. 

The big "make flash grow" driver in the PC world is the desire to for DRM 
in the bios. So we may still get those big BIOS parts, for reasons we 
don't like.
