From Powerdeveloper.org, Genesi's official developer forum:
As you can see, new Efika hardware seems to be on the way. It looks like the IM53 will still be based on the Cortex-A8, but could feature faster DDR3 RAM, with the potential to reach up to 2GB, SATAII capability, and many other features. All in all it seems like it will be a fantastic improvement on their current line. Unfortunately no specific hardware information has been released yet, because the company is waiting for the Freescale Technology Forum, taking place on June 20-23rd. After that, hopefully we'll hear some news about what these babies will really be rocking. There's also a mention of an Efika tablet in the linked topic. Sounds like good news to me. What are your thoughts? Is anyone else here thinking of buying one of these.

(By the way, these things seem to have full flash player support. Just wanted to throw that out there.
