That's why I said you need to gang them.  SI/SO goes to all of them in 
parallel and /CS selects whichever you are going to use (SO is 
tristate until the device is selected and gets a command to output 
something and an unselected device ignores everything coming in on 
SI).

Ramtron has an FRAM with 256kx8 organization and SPI interface, but 
I'm sure this would be more expensive than eight SPI SRAM and perhaps 
a 3-to-8 decoder.
