If you are using a GL, you'll probably find our P33 a good fit and at
competitive prices to GL as I understand it. That's I think 50Mhz.

What's a GL? Never heard of it - all I can think of is OpenGL :-)

S29_GL_128N

I'm using a S29GL064N chip. Going through linux and /dev/mtd I get 13.5
MB/sec and reading directly from the chips give 15 MB/sec. I've not mapped
the chip cached and I'm not using the page burst mode. That would help a lot
certainly, but the current flash speed isn't much of a bottleneck.
