Freescale processor is a good choice for PPC, they pretty much own the market.

A P5020 development system board runs US$4000.  The processor runs US$317 in quantities of 1000 in the States.  You are in embedded systems territory, and that is an expensive place to be.  We'll just have to see.

Price really isn't that important in niche computing, really if you can get AmigaOne's price/performance ratios down to 2 or 3 times Apple ratios you should be happy.  In the commercial world they have millions of computers to spread the cost of development over, here you have hundreds.  

Trevor has done a remarkable job delivering what he promised at the price he promised.  He deserves a well done and good luck from all of us.  I look forward to hearing about his X2000 when it becomes available.
