I think it's safe to say that the times for raw flash in consumer devices
are over, whether we like it or not. Even if we could go back to MTD
for internal storage, we'd still need something better than what we
have for removable flash storage such as USB and SD.

(and I know that xD cards are basically raw flash, but have you tried
to buy one recently?)
