What can you tell me about Flash Memory?

Applications?
Advantages?
Disadvantages?
Current development and progress?
Cool facts?

(If you can answer ANY of the above, it would be greatly appreciated)

On the plus side it's non-volatile, which means it will keep storing what it's storing without having a power source. If you pull the plug on a computer everything in its memory not saved to disk will disappear forever.

Also it can be contained in a very compact device, such as a keychain fob.

On the minus side it is more expensive to store an equivalent amount of information on flash memory than a cheap medium like a CD-R or a floppy disk. However you don't want to keep a CD-R in your pocket.

The price of flash memory is always coming down.

A newer vesion of it is coming out.. its going to have a faste transfer rate then ever before and max capacity at 8 gigs
