Hi Scumbria; The DDR drumbeat has become so hard and fast that I don't have time to comment on the technology, I'm basically just posting articles when they come out. Anyone who thinks that DDR isn't going to arrive (in low volume) for Christmas is living in serious dreamland. At the Expo four major OEMs, Fujitsu, Hitachi, IBM and NEC displayed ultralight notebooks running with Crusoe processors. Because all Crusoe chips utilize Transmeta's LongRun power management technology, they consume less power than common mobile processors, and thus extend the battery life. According to IBM, their Thinkpad 240 with Crusoe now runs 4 to 7 hours on battery. IBM plans to offer the Thinkpad in time for the holiday season, it will cost between $1800 and $2300, depending on the configuration. tomshardware.com -- Carl
