Was looking on DC Emu and came across this new little machine.
"Although Oppo's fresh S11 likely has SmartQ's latest beat in the attractiveness department, the 4GB T5-II is the unanimous champion in terms of sheer utility. Not only can this handheld handle MP3, OGG, WMA, FLAC, APE, AAC, WAV, AVI, XviD, DivX, MPEG and MP4 files (just to name a few), it also features a video output, SDHC expansion slot, six-band equalizer and a 600MHz processor. Furthermore, you'll find a 3-inch 320 x 240 resolution display and a built-in emulator that handles GBA and even NEO GEO titles. Not too shabby for $174.99"

Now obviously its features are a lot less than the Pandora no kb, wifi, GPU etc, BUT the price is nearly half and the base CPU speed is the same I don't know if its the same processor and can be overclocked but right now is this the closest rival in terms of pure CPU speed for emulation?
I'm not saying I'm getting or want one but now that these processors are coming out for lower priced handhelds do you think since maybe N64 emulation will hit these other machines down the line it will take anything away from the Pandora's market share?
Esp interested in someone like Chads opinion as I know he likes GBMicro sized emulation machines, maybe this will float his boat!?
Edit: Found the processor it uses, its a 'ADI Blackfin BF547 Processor'
