 i know of 3 other "outsiders" 2 of which i know have Cortex A9s and
one of which i suspect might - i've asked them on everyone's behalf if
they'd be interested in putting their CPUs into this format.  all of
the three will have both Ethernet as well as SATA-II.  two of the CPUs
are designed for the Set-Top box market (so they have to have SATA-II
to tick all the boxes) and the other one just... well, it just has
SATA-II (but ironically, not HDMI afaicmo.  weird, that).
