 right, ok - sorry, that was a quick reply while i was on the phone.
yes.  TI.  interesting you should mention them: there's some news that
TI is in "advanced negotiations" with Amazon, to sell their entire SoC
division.  TI will "focus on their core embedded expertise".

 in other words: lots and lots of great documentation doesn't
necessarily translate directly into huge mass-volume sales.

 the point of the EOMA strategy is: we're inviting SoC vendors - all
of them - to expand their markets.  not just allwinner with its one
A10 processor.
