I noticed this the other day: http://www.piclist.com/techref/microchip/picsimm.htm

You might find that SODIMMs are worth looking at too (32 or 36 bit wide data i think) if you are
thinking of making a commercial product, as SIMM prices are pretty steep compared with SDRAM
(probably because simms use older non-synchronous dram chips which fewer companies are making
nowdays). Standard DIMMs are probably out as they are 64 bit I think, which probably means too much
extra circuitry to make it worthwhile.

Simon
