Yes, but since the main idea of the "MorphPAD" should be to run MorphOS on it the Android screen doesn't really help my imagination ;-)
> I think the e300 or e600 core???
The e300 doesn't exist as a dual-core chip, but the e600 core does. That said, an e600 based dual-core chip like the MPC8640D isn't suited for something like your "dual core efika" as it's consuming too much power.
> whats happened to them
There will probably be no new variants of the e300 core, and definitely not of the e600 core, and also no new chips based on existing variants of either core. The last chip based on e600 core was introduced
3 years ago, the (probably) last chips based on e300 core
one year ago. In terms of non-
automotive and non-
industrial-control Power Architecture chips, Freescale is fully focussing on multicore QorIQ chips based on the e500/e5500/e6500 core range now.
> are they PPC?
Yes, they are.
