The IoT era is here.

Koniakki:

lol I had the tab open since yesterday and just checked it now and ROM didn't sit right with me either and then I scroll down and saw your comment. I guess most by now, we are too used to saying/using "storage" instead. 😛

ROM is just flat-out wrong, since it stands for "Read Only Memory", which is something like your BIOS chip on your mainboard, which is typically only ever read. Yes, it can be flashed, but only with difficulty. Its not written to in normal operation. So calling the typical flash-based storage in a phone "ROM" is just factually wrong.
