...I have an AMLogic reference board on my desk right now (for my day job) with one of these. It's only single core, but it's a seriously fast box. 3D performance via the integrated Mali GPU is excellent. It's running Android. (Incidentally, the board has SATA, USB master, USB slave, genuine serial, SD, mini-HDMI, ethernet, a 3.5mm jack marked YPbPr, audio out, and an infrared receiver; it also has headers for LCD/touch panel, Audio/FM, Wifi/GPS/BT, a camera, DTV decoder, and JTAG. It looks like it's only got 512MB RAM, though. I don't know if they're available for order or not.) -- ┌─── ｄｇ＠ｃｏｗｌａｒｋ．ｃｏｍ ───── http://www.cowlark.com ───── │ "I have always wished for my computer to be as easy to use as my │ telephone; my wish has come true because I can no longer figure out │ how to use my telephone." --- Bjarne Stroustrup
