There is even no SI unit or unit used with the SI that starts with the letter "i".
The "bi" stands for binary; this choice makes the pronounciation of prefixed units like kibibit sound a little strange and may go a long way towards explaining the unfortunately very poor adoption of this proposal in the real world.
For example, "kbit" should be used for "kilobit" and "kibit" for "kibibit".

 Hydrogenaudio Forums -> How come mp3s are so small?
A few years ago, some industrials decided to change it mainly for marketting/commercial justifications: hard drive manufacturers want you to think that 1GB is 1 000 000 000 bytes instead of 1 073 741 824 bytes, and Microsoft wants you to think that 1kbit is 1024bits.
A binary kilobit, or "kibibit" is 1024 bits.
To correct this the Kibi, mebi, gibi, tebi, pebi, and exbi were made a standard in 1998, to represent the binary versions.

There is a proposal out there to standardize the units for binary multiples.
In other words, since 1 kilobit should really equal 1000 bits (not 1024), the proposal is to have a kibi- prefix.

 Re: spc3r21c.pdf tupo kib != KiB   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Me, I'm now guessing in spc3r21c.pdf there's some assymetry near the phrase "one kibibit is 1 Kib is 1 024 bits" that originally misled my eye, but I haven't found it again yet.
Also now I notice my English and theirs collides: by 40 30 20 10 I mean a list of four numbers, by their 1 024 they mean one number of four digits, not two numbers in a list.

We know why we use 2^X0 for computer size terms but what about this kibibite stuff.
All of this came about when they tried to introduce in in 1998, if you look around the start of computer storage terms were around well before 1998 and while metric system was around be the computer terms it was for base 10 math.
