Does anyone know if Wasabi Systems has a _shipping_ production level
Flash File System?  I called them today and they said that they DO have
such a thing but it isn't running on 1.5.2.   Did they just ship it with
1.6?  If so how proven is it?

Thanks
Kyle

Wasabi Systems has a wear-leveling flash "filesystem" (it actually
presents the flash as a block device, and you put any FS you want on
top of that).  However, Wasabi has not yet contributed that code back
to the public sources.
