Even SSD is only cooking with NAND Flash.  

However, my NAND Flash (Micron) makes arround 120 MByte/sec

Ehm, my two prototype PanePC Workstations are a Marvel Discovery MV78200
with 1200 MHz and Marvel Armada 300 with 2000 MHz.

Both computers are booting and starting programs much faster then my AMD
Athlon XP 2800+ with 3 GByte of memory and 2"5 7200 RpM SATA drive.

Debian Squeeze needs around 8 Seconds to Boot-Up into WDM.

The third try will be a Marvel Armada 1000.

Operating System is Debian GNU/Linux Squeeze/ARMEL.  Nothing embedded.
