Jeff, FLASH is a type of memory that retains its state until changed. One of the characteristics of FLASH are that the bits can only be individually programmed from the 1 state to a 0. In order to get the state back to 1, it must be 'erased' in big chunks. Within the category of FLASH, there are two major types; NOR and NAND. NAND is like non-volatile RAM and is used for program execution. It takes more space to create a bit, so are smaller in size. Not sure, but I don't believe this type is used in the Nokia's. NOR is higher in density, and is the type used in SD cards.
