MRAM in 2004?

Posted by michael on from the holy-grail dept.

amberspry writes "As previously reported here and here. Wired has yet another update on MRAM here. They give hope by mid-2004 we will see devices with faster boot up times and using less power as a 'vastly accelerated timetable is being implemented.' Gotta love joint ventures."

    The story is almost worthless marketing drivel. How about answers to some very basic questions like:

    What is the capacity?

    What is "extremely dense" in quantitative terms, and how do they achieve it?

    If it's really going to be a "universal RAM replacement", how does it compare with the 512 Mb DRAMs recently announced?

    There are many more similar questions, but answers to these three would be a start.
