"The Discovery V system controller integrates several I/O peripherals on-chip, including a DDR2 memory controller, a PowerPC CPU interface, Gigabit Ethernet, PCI-X and PCI-E bridges, storage functions, and a USB 2.0 interface. The Discovery V is software compatible with legacy Marvell Discovery system controllers, preserving the customer’s software investment while accelerating development cycles."

Looking forward to seeing a new Pegasos board with this Chipset and PCI-Express :-D

Why doesn't Eyetech (or someone else) base an AmigaOne model on this chipset? It seems like everyone's beating themselves up looking for solutions to already solved problems. Genesi and Marvell are moving forward and we could be taking advantage of this ourselves, why arn't we?

PCI-Express will be a must very soon, so it's nice to see it secured.
