May I ask, how many new hardwares contain more than one processing core?...
IMO: it would be futile to design/produce a board with single core CPU.
Multicore variants are not that much more expensive and by using multicore SoC, the HW might be interesting also to some Linux/Android geeks etc..
For example Quad core T1042 will be available for USD65...USD80 and T1022 will surely be cheaper.
When the system price will anyway be around USD250...300 or more, a few 10USD in SOC price is not that important.
So I personally would leave singecore T1 PPC models out of the question.
The board that I'm looking forward to buy and experiment with: T1042RDB-PA ~$1,100
