I'm mostly interested in the user manual. I was very impressed with their i.mx53 SDK and documentation. I world of difference compared to the poorly translated or reverse-engineered info available for the Chinese chips. I can't speak for other developers but I know which one I would rather program for. If the pricing is similar and you can afford to wait until the hardware is ready, I would go with a Freescale solution. Too bad their current imx6 dev board is $300 or I would pick one up now to play with until final versions are ready next year.</div>

<div>These $300 boards are with pre-engineering samples and probably have lot of bugs, which now they fixed and run next revision.</div><div>One good concept of iMX6 is that 1-2-4 core devices share same pinout so you can use same hardware design for up to 4.8GHz accumulated processor power (4 cores running at 1.2GHz), and you have HDMI, SATA, 10/100/1000 Ethernet, CAN etc.</div>
