(the validity was never in any doubt and it was interesting to see other similar things appearing like the chinese supercomputer chip).
I look forward to future developments...

As I said on Adapteva's Linked In page, Ooooo I want one! Very exciting!
Some questions though.Will the chip be able to access external Dram as per the existing model? The reason I ask is that Contiki uses external ROM to keep parts of the system not used for that task out of working memory and I was hoping the external DRAM would fulfil that role.
The current Epihany chip needs a HAL and another processor to get data/instructions to run programs. Will the new chip be able to access data direct itself without the need for another CPU?
As the new chip has to be tested, that means designing a board so the chip can run. Is another test board that could be a Parallella board being designed?
Finally, work on my own little project (learning C and porting Contiki) has been proceeding rather slowly for various reasons. This announcement is a spur to get more done!
Regards,
Paul
