a more drastic transition than dual-core.

Dual core will be a pretty dramatic transition. Power and heat are going to be extremely hard to pack into the small package. It hardly seems worth it if memory access has to go externally to check coherency and down another external bus to the DRAM. It's unlikely to be just a drop in replacement in 1p systems, the current would be too high.
