Dug up some details on the R8 used in the CHIP. It doesn't look like it'll have much juice. There are comparable chips out there (made by Atmel for example) in terms of speed/performance. Single Cortex-A8 (don't disclose cache sizes) DDR2/3 up to 530MHz 16-bit bus 512MB Max capacity Support NAND/SPI Nor/SD Card 1080p30 decode, 720p30 encode H.264 They don't disclose the clock but can't imagine it is high.
