You know me pretty well. Well, there is a big difference between NOR flash and your device: NOR flash is memory, but your's is a storage device attached to some bus interface (SPI here). The problem is that we don't have a good solution to interface with such devices yet. Using the eeprom command for such devices is misleading, IMO. If you can live with the spiflash command, then this is not perfect, but I guess it will have to do for now as we don't have a better solution yet.
