Intel Braidwood technology is based on a flash memory module

"Braidwood is a flash memory technology that provides faster boot-up time, faster application launch, and a snappier, more responsive system," said Rob Crooke, vice president and general manager of Intel's Business Client Group, speaking during a presentation streamed over the Web from the Computex conference in Taipei, Taiwan, earlier this week.

That's what it was supposed to be, targets P57/H57 chipset from what I hear and isn't supported on P55.
