I've been getting mine used from people that have been upgrading laptops
to bigger disks. I have several in the <2Gb range (no... don't ask for
one... three of them have Linux/Solaris/WinBlows for my regular laptop).

The picture shows two 64Mb Flash chips soldered down - 128Mb/16MB total.
There's a page from the guy who hacked his that shows the output of Linux
"dmesg" shows the disks thusly...
