Another Technological Paradigm Shift?

Every time you turn around, someone claims that a new technology represents a revolution. The latest salvo heralds the coming of zero-capacitance RAMs (Z-RAMs), denser and less-expensive alternatives to conventional DRAMs, as a seismic shift. But not all such highly touted innovations have lived up to their early promise. How much difference do you think Z-RAM introduction will make to future electronic products? What will we be able to do that we can't do with DRAMs? Will you be incorporating the new devices into your products? How?
