I remember. Actually what I understood when they said "future parts" was 90nm. Could be wrong.
But taking availability, JEDEC-specification, price and benefits of DDR-2 into consideration automn 2004 (90nm) would be fast enough for this (in my books).
OTOH, if its really trivial (and doable en passant with a new stepping), why not earlier - it could help to sell a couple more FX next spring.

Memory is really not my field of expertise - what performance benefits are likely to be delivered with DDR-2 over DDR(-1) at the same clockrate?
And, it requires other memory-slots on the boards, right?
