Steady on, that OMAP device is marginally slower vs s3c6410 CPU, 600 vs
633MHz.  And it's hard to say that Samsung "doesn't care about open
source the slightest bit", they did go to the trouble to make the BSP
available for Linux.  By the time we're done with them they will have
mainline support for it.

OMAP has this sexy DSP business, but the Glamo has all kinds of
coprocessors that will never get used.  6410 is going to make a
satisfying basis for a smart device I think.
