Samsung also seems to have no more ((partially) useful) docs about the s3c
series online.
Why not switch to freescale, and get solid arm11 SoCs with more power then
even the samsung pedants and million times used in smartphones of all
vendors? They even have hundreds of sites in documents freely available on
most of the products.
I still think that a arm-core from this century (not from the last like the
s3c2xxx) would be able to have enough power to forget about the graphics
accelerator for the most usecases.
