I asked about this early on, and they said it will support AGP.

64bit 66mhz PCI is AGP equivalent, in terms of throughput, but you find AGP cards on the market, and not many 64bit 66mhz PCI graphics cards, so they would need to do some hardwdare implementation to give you a physcial AGP slot, as well as whatever else they need to interface that to the marvell.

my assumption is, whatever AGP slot they develop, it will be a 2xAGP slot equivalent (that wouldn't stop someone from supporting higher multipliers, just wouldn't get any more throughput than the marvell can handle)

but, I'm no hardware engineer, and people can correct me at will.  Just my thoughts.
