make sure that power consumption (and rough price) are included. i
think you'll find it's a big eye-opener right now, for anything that
has ports over 1gbit (of any kind). translation: if you want an ARM
processor, forget SATA-III, USB3, multi-lane PCI-e and multiple
Gigabit Ethernet for at least another... 18-24 months, and even then
you'll find they only come on systems with a 5 watt+ power budget.
which aren't really "embedded" processors any more, really, are they.

p.s. yes marvell have a spec for a multi-gigabit ethernet,
multi-SATA-II, multi-PCI-e ARM processor. power requirements: TEN
watts.
