ibm licensed the 800mhz direct rambus asic cell (RAC) 6 months ago for use with their new logic technology called blue logic.
ibm is probably the world leader in this industry or at least they think they are. the original schedule as announced last november called for shipping this (2nd) quarter.
this could generate a little (big?) earnings surprise if shipping has commenced.
