ARM11 is not better than ARM8? Whats the deal with that....

it's not arm8, it's arm cortex a8.

then came the a9, and coming soon is the a15.

All of the arm cortex chips implement armv7 instructions, while the arm11 implements armv6 instructions.

armv8 adds 64bit, but there are no cores announced that support it.
