This should be interesting. The hardware looks nice, but software wasn't mentioned.

The Marvell ARMADA line is based on the ARM7 architecture, with an integrated 3d graphics processor. Marvell bought Intel's former StrongARM division when Intel reorganized and stopped making non-Intel architecture CPUs. ARM processors power many cellphones and PDAs, and there are ARM based netbooks on the drawing board.

My first question is what OS it will run and what software will be available. Offhand, I'd bet on an embedded flavor of Linux, though other possibilities exist.

Google's Android OS initially targets ARM devices, and might be a good choice.
