What RMBS have, similar to QCOM a couple years back, is a technology that have the promise to become a standard. I hope I do not have to convince you that this is very very important. If the technology does become a standard (such as in QCOM's case), they immediately have the leverage to shadow their influence on related fields (what QCOM did). I can give you other examples what a standard allows a company to do: what x86 instruction set do to Intel's success, what Win32 API do to Microsoft success.

I have no doubt that people in RMBS are thinking about the next generates of the technology and how to leverage the standard if they get it. DDR RDRAM? RDRAM II? RDRAM 2005? You get the picture. :)
