Thanks for researching the answer of my inquiry which ARM processor.
However, Marvell's specification of the 88F6292 aka Armada-300 does not
disclose which ARM processor it has. I didn't see a reference to Sheeva.
I doubt Netgear is using the same processor that Sheevaplug and
DreamPlug uses. So much secrecy! Marvell requires a nondisclosure
agreement which may be why Netgear is secretive.

I haven't purchased a Sheevaplug because I am still researching whether
there is a new ARM device without TrustZone and Mobicore. Without
knowing what ARM processor is in Armada 300, TrustZone cannot be
confirmed.
