I would like to see a list of products that utilize these chips. Would be a great resource so people could steer clear of purchasing them. It's not like you can go to a manufacturer spec page to see that a given module uses these Elpida chips. You can't even tell if you are are holding a module in your hand because the heat spreader covers up the chips.
So far the only company to behave correctly is Corsair. They dropped the chips, stated there was a problem, and generally giving the customer the "good vibes". Kingston on the other hand, just did a nVidia and wouldn't even admit to a problem.. Every time a problem arise you see what companys are good and who to avoid. I have used Corsair product for a long time, and never regretted paying the slight premium price.

You know this is 300$ memory chips ? This is the most expensive chips you can buy so whoever buys them do not "save money on components".

Elpida's share price is down 10.5% on Monday trading in Tokyo...
They skimped on ESD protection to keep the speed up. Burn baby burn!
