It can be argued that their patent portfolio was worth about that much.
There's a huge difference between the lab and a production model.
There will always be a place for yet faster memory. Does this compete with the registers and L1/L2 cache in terms of speed?
Energy usage is the huge one - if this is applied to computing and not just storage then maybe.
