"The world's leading semiconductor maker said it had developed the industry's first 60-nanometer 8-gigabit NAND Flash memory chip used for data storage."

"A second breakthrough concerns its development of the world's first 2Gb DDR2 SDRAM by using existing, 80-nanometer micro-processing technology."

"The company also said it had developed the world's fastest, 667-megaHertz central processing unit (CPU) chip for mobiles which are suitable for three-dimensional graphics. "

Sweet, now I can play Quake 2 on my phone. Just what I always wanted, more time wasted on that damn game.

And CELL will use 65nm?? Am I comparing apples to oranges?

Yep, memory VS logic transistors. Not the same.

When will people learn that clock speed isn't everything?

May be they should give FLOPs from now on.

We're talking about memory here....

It says CPU...and last time I checked CPU =! RAM.
