first we need SATA VIII I guess

and how long will we be waiting for this 1000x faster/endurance and 10 denser, before it is in the hands of consumers??

If this brings any sort of cost reduction per gb in the consumer market I'll be happy speeds are already decent for the average user Imo

IsnĀ“t this similar to Crossbar RRAM?

I think you guys should read the anandtech thoughts on this.
First of all Intel/Micron are already building consumer versions of this, it's like complete. They have volume shipments scheduled for next year already.
Second it isn't designed to replace NAND or DRAM. It kind of acts inbetween them. It's a good replacement for like the Cache on a HDD/SSD, as it doesn't lose data when it gets unpowered. It's not replacing DDR or SSD storage though, at least yet.
Anyway, here's the link:

I'll let my children know when I decide to have children.
