Kingston has low latency notebook RAM

Kingston Technology, the world's largest memory manufacturer, has today taken the covers off an interesting new memory product for notebook users.

Say hello to Kingston's DDR2-667 SO-DIMM notebook memory. You can pick it up in 2GB or 4GB kits with timings of 4-4-4-12 at 1.8 volts. The memory company claims it is the perfect solution for notebook users wanting to upgrade from a slower 1GB or 2GB kit.

They also claim these speeds are programmed into SPD, so there are no BIOS adjustments or overclocking needed.
