Samsung outs mobile Flash that cuts a dash
Ultra-fast storage for phones, fondleslabs
Agentless Backup is Not a Myth
Samsung is now mass-producing "ultra-fast" Flash memory - the fastest of its kind, the Korean company claims - for phones and tablets.
According to Samsung, the memory shifts bits at four times the speed of the firm's previous Embedded Multimedia Card (eMMC) parts, delivering sequential read and write speeds of less than 140MB/s and 50MB/s, respectively.
Random data transfers are clocked at 3500 (read) and 1500 (write) IOPS.

The Flash comes in 64Mb (8MB) units to be hooked up to the host over a DDR 2 interface. It's fabbed at 20nm and supports the eMMC 4.5 spec.
Volume production now means the Samsung Flash will be appearing in devices any month now. iPhone 5, anyone? ®

iPhone5
Short of contract restrictions, Samsung would be crazy to go giving Apple competitive advantages.
Next thing you know, they'd be sued for using the memory they invented in their own phones.

You beat me to it. I was going to say...
"Volume production now means the Samsung Flash will be appearing in devices any month now. iPhone 5, anyone?"
Yes, at which point Apple will patent the idea of using this ultra fast Flash memory in portable devices, and accuse anyone else who uses it of copying their tech, and try to get it banned.
Re: iPhone5
" When has Apple ever sued anyone over hardware patents?"
And when has anyone ever taken an OTT comment posted with a troll icon seriously?
Oh, wait...
