I'm more impressed by the fact that there's still DDR2 going around. I know DDR3 is still alive and well, even manufactured(I myself noticed the appearance of new DDR3 kits, which is weird); but didn't knew DDR2 was still in stock. I'm assuming industrial/embedded applications still use it for obvious reasons, but I have to wonder to what degree DDR2 kits are being produced.
Surprisingly by boatloads by Chinese manufacturers. Nothing really shady about it (standard concerns about raw materials excepted), but it is still used mainly for random embedded stuff where there is a need for a memory module but the design is from a time where DDR3 chips are not available. An ubiquitous example are those DVD players from random Chinese brands that are based on Mediatek's designs from 2004(-ish).
