Hi blake paterson; Re the question of where Rambus takes their royalties... Most royalty agreements are written so that royalties on a given device only have to be paid once. What you are suggesting is that NEC and Hitachi will have to pay royalties on DDR chips manufactured for Elpida, and then Elpida will also have to pay royalties when they sell it to customers. It is my understanding that foundries and the companies they make parts for can arrange for either company to be the one that has the IP license. Let's ask Zeev for an opinion on this. But right now, it sure appears that Elpida doesn't have a Rambus license, and doesn't care that much. -- Carl
