Hi Wily

"Does the communications business really need off-chip RAM?"

The direction it (the comm industry) is going: YES Look at the Nokia Communicator for instance, you can log on to the net with it, and then you start needing a lot of memory. Current designs of "Handys" (hand held mobile communication devices) are looking at on board TV; Radio; turninng on the cooker remotely, direct debiting, stock quotes, E-Mails and speach recognition.
So the answer is a big YES. But there will be an emphasis on very low power.

Regards
Alan

wily and thread, I OWE DON AN APOLOGY -- I forgot that he said something to the affect that "barring the Fed lowering interest rates, the market was headed south", and as we all know the Fed did, and will do again, imo. SORRY, DON -- I have to remember to go back and read thoroughly, before posting.
