TI takes high-end DSPs to 720 MHz

MANHASSET, N.Y. — Texas Instruments has revved its TMS320C64xx line of high-end DSPs from 600 MHz to 720 MHz to enable them to better tackle the demands of digital video, imaging and wireless/telecommunications applications. {more at link}

Ilmarinen,

I find it interesting that TI has seen fit to increase the speed of their "high-end" DSP's. Going from 600 to 720 sounds like they're tweeking the clock rate in much the same way PC enthusiasts overclock AMD processors.

Is such an increase in DSP MIPS that significant and what are the chances of these DSP's being used in Nokia's UltraSite boxes?
