Apparently everyone forgot the other half of the Rambus problem. They are the only company that can make it due to their patents, and they'll defend that patent at the detriment of the industry. If it really takes off and people stop buying other types of memory, they'll have a monopoly. In which case, they'll drive the prices up substantially.
I won't be buying this on principle... the last thing I want to do is fund that detestable company.
