If AMD CPU's of today like low latencies, the future ones better like high latencies otherwise they wont work well with this DDR2, especially if its CL5

They ought to just bring DDR2 out when DDR cannot take anymore (when everyone has overclocked them to their death).
Not everyone overclocks Also, PC4400 isn't a real speed. The actual memory chips pc4400 aren't designed to run that speed. They've merely been configured/forced specially to run the way they do. And as others have mentioned the ddr2 will be needed in future, coincidentally, the future is also when its coming out (really)
