Hi charred water; Re Transmeta's Crusoe and DDR... The 5400 supports both DDR and SDRAM on the same board, according to the Transmeta web site. All indications from the company are that the 5600 differs from the 5400 primarily in the amount of cache memory.

Of course a company could ship the unit with no DDR, but the hand that rocks the cradle and all that. Deployment of a chipset that supports DDR is DDR news, whether or not it is actually hooked up to DDR or not. In actual fact, DDR uses considerably less power than SDRAM, so it is quite likely that of the various manufacturers (and there are said to be >40 Crusoe design wins) a good number will go with DDR.

Perhaps this link will explain things better:
