Gene,
I like to put announcements in the right context.

quoteserver.dogpile.com
"Via expects DDR to take off in the white-box, second-tier PC market first. "These companies move much faster than [established] major PC OEMs," he said. "Some brand-name OEMs will show demonstration systems at Comdex this fall, but they'll take the customary four to five months to test and qualify DDR chipsets for production systems. That means commercial PC OEMs will make their big DDR launch in mid-2001."

"He thought consumer-PC OEMs might miss the spring 2001 introduction for the back-to-school market and would make their big DDR push for the 2001 holiday selling season."

And a bit of history on VIA and their track record on past announcements:
Sep 18, 1997
viatech.com
"Supports up to 1GB FPM, EDO, SDRAM and DDR SDRAM memory types"
"The two-chip Apollo VP3 is now in mass production. 100Mhz versions of the chipset will be available in late Q4 '97/early Q1'98."
