We have built the world's most powerful memory chip
Samsung claims

SAMSUNG claims it has developed the world's most powerful memory chip, which can be used to build a memory card capable of storing 80 DVD movies.

Up to 16 of the new 64-gigabit NAND flash memory chips can be combined to make a 128-gigabyte memory card, the firm said.

Such devices will be hitting the shops in 2009, Samsung sang.

Kwon Hyosun, a senior manager in Samsung Electronics's investor relations department, told AFP that the chip is the biggest storage capacity of a single memory chip ever developed in the world.

It will find its way into a new $20-billion market offering fresh applications for various multimedia items such as mobile handsets, digital cameras, MP3 players and PCs.
