That sounds interesting as the SH RISC based CPUs are getting used more
and more in STB and PDA, as well as other Internet appliances... so I
guess it would make Linux into a real-time OS?  My boss just got a CE2.0
NEC Mobile GearII... it's pretty nice in the fact that it is several
times faster than its predecessors.. might actually go out and get one
now... 

can't help out in the programming... can I be a "SUPPORTER"? :D
