Hey Treowth,

I think you got the modules and the chips mixed up. That Kingston thing you quote is a module (so 8 chips), not just a chip.

The DDR400 chip price (256 Mbit) is typically now $ 2.30. Better is to compare with the up-and-coming DDR2 chip, which costs (512 Mbit) $ 6 apiece.

So $ 25-30 is high enough to keep XDR from getting widespread adoption, if that is what they are after;-)

Cheers
Cor
