Thanks for the replies. IMHO there is a drastic difference between sigmadesign chips and ARM 11 cores with a higher end PowerVR implementation or better. So the dependencies are OpenGL 2.0 and processing power? At what point does ARM become interesting? Would a 1 Ghz dual core Arm 11 suffice to run 720p, assuming there is OpenGl 2.0 support on the GPU? There is also plethora of Linux support for Arm 9 and 11. Lastly, the price point is phenomenal and the MIB market will make them cheaper still over time. The little PC I mention is going to be one of many.
