by this do you mean arm won't get royalties on xscale ?

I believe Intel has a license and ARM will continue to benefit. In what way is unclear. A flat license fee or royalties? I believe Intel also has the right to extend the instruction set.

According to the book 'ARM System Architecture'. the SrongARM CPU was designed by DEC with collaboration from ARM.

It uses a modified Harvard Architecture (sep I and data cache). The instruction set is, I believe unchanged.

I would assume that ARM still makes a royalty fee from Intel's XScale design, but the Intel CPUs are higher performance, than other designs, and thereby sell for more $. I would assume the Intel margin per CPU is therefore better than standard ARM7/9 core CPU designs
