Same here.

My datasheet (same date, same number) does not mention 128 kB ranges at all.

Those addresses are, respectively:

hex   decimal        offset
f0002 15*64k+0*4k+2  0k
f2002 15*64k+2*4k+2  8k
f4002 15*64k+4*4k+2  16k
f6002 15*64k+6*4k+2  24k
f8002 15*64k+8*4k+2  32k
fa002 15*64k+10*4k+2 40k
fc002 15*64k+12*4k+2 48k
fe002 15*64k+14*4k+2 56k


At a first glance, it is easy to assume an additional hex digit in the
middle because we're so used to it. That may the reason you were seeing
128 kB blocks which I can't find here.
