Pam,

If the purpose of this comparison is to determine which has the lowest cost-structure (which is what Buggi is trying to do) it is useless to do such a comparison unless those products are available or will be available within a quarter or two.

From this, a general observation can be made: > 2 b/c seems to always lag 2 b/c (in case of Spansion, and Toshiba). By the time > 2 b/c can enter production, 2 b/c is ready for the next node (with better performance characteristics). So is > 2 b/c really worth it?

Unless > 2 b/c can be produced at latest node, the answer is that it may not be worth it...

Yesterday, Sandisk had their CC and they are planning to introduce 12Gb 3 b/c at 56nm in March/April.

The same question as above. Is 3 b/c at 56nm worth it, if it is going to perform substantially worse than 2 b/c at 43nm?
