Maui Dude: Re:"Thread, Intel and TI battle heating up" So far, all Intel's SA offerings have been from their Hudson group and are DEC designs running on a DEC process. That will change soon when the product line is moved to Intel's design tools and Intel process/manufacturing. Intel's SA product line will be much stronger than the competition. EP

As much as I would like to see the Palm using XScale, I don't think it is a done deal. A month or so ago Motorola licensed from ARM their CPU cores, in no doubt secondary to direct or indirect pressure from Palm. At this point I know of no ARM CPU that has the performance/power consumption of the Xscale processor, so we'll see which way Palm goes (in addition the Motorola CPU will most likely be coming onstream at a later date than XScale). What is for sure though is that backward compatibility will not be a problem, as the Dragonball is so slow, any CPU chosen by Palm will likely be able to emulate the 68k code of the Dragonball than it could run it natively.
