Intel X-Scale

[Brett Swimley]

Michael - Thanks for the response.  I'll check out the website and 
educate myself a bit more.
I think we're looking specifically at the IXP420 Network Processor,  
which (correct me if I'm wrong) would be similar to the PXA255 with 
different peripherals.

Regards,

Brett
