Not necessarily true. Atmel's DataFlash has both 8 and 16 Mbit capacities
with serial interfaces and large (528 byte) dual ram buffers. Also with the part
it's possible to fill one buffer for writing while the other is actually
being written to the flash.

All in all a very cool part.

And exactly how does EEPROM and Flash differentiate so significantly that
one could not be used in place of the other?
