Sounds like a no-brainer. Where is the catch?
Might be finally the death of HDDs.
Also yay for mobile devices with multi-terabyte storage.

Crossbar, a start up in California, announced today their resistance RAM or ReRAM product. Their nonvolatile memory technology promises several advances:• Up to 1 TB of storage on a single chip
• Simple 3-D stacking for multiple terabytes
• Very low-power that helps extend battery life
• 20x faster writes than NAND flash
• Low-cost manufacturability - CMOS compatible process
• Half the dice size of current flash

I have no idea why one would want that much storage on a phone. I can see this technology could be very useful for PC's and Laptops.
