Thanks!
I think that's a real good presentation. I especially like the "how fortunate are we to have problems like this" bent. Another point to make under the other OS's section is to note that Linux on ARM is by far the most successful embedded development platform because Linux can be hacked on so easily. Still another point to bring up is that binary blob based development is killing productivity for ARM SoC manufactures and their customers since each new "drop" must be integrated, tested, etc... Also mentioning that because of this, device manufactures cannot realistically track a tip kernel, because the binary blobs either have to be regenerated or reintegrated. This is made even more difficult because these blobs are typically generated in remote locations apart from the core code base.
