sounds good... I called 2 distributors here in the US (and Canada) http://www.digikey.ca & http://www.future.ca to ask them about pxa270 availability. The first only have pxa255 and the second neither of them! I'm very interested and ready to contribute/volunteer in the dev/test of balloon3. Is that possible? btw, are you planning to add integrated ethernet support to balloon3? _________________________________________________________________ Free web site and shopping cart. http://www.wirescale.com/ -----Original Message----- From: Nick Bane [mailto:nick@cecomputing.co.uk] Sent: Tuesday, September 07, 2004 4:32 PM To: Solutions IT WireScale; balloon@balloonboard.org Subject: RE: [Balloon] Processor update to XScale > > I'm new to the list... > > Since StrongARM 1110 becomes unavailable, are you planning to > update the board > processor to Xscale? > We have an Intel mainstone dev board for pxa270.
