Wow, good price for effectively an Itsy. I think it suggest that a newer
model is coming soon, probably with a reasonable chance of an XScale
version. At least one company claims to be shipping XScale machines this
month, up to 700MHz; which means about 3-4 times the StrongARM
performance at about the same current consumption. Would make a very
nice machine, though I'd prefer an ARM1020FE device myself to get the
hardware floating point vector processor. Fast Morphic :-)

I'd get one of these special deals myself, but even at that price it
counts as 5% of my income for for the yerar so far :-(
