    There exist also development ports to the Freescale MobileGT platform


    Is the ARM which is in that Efika II is the same as Freescale MobileGT? Sorry for a lame question but im not really familiar with that familiy of processors.


    No, not at all. MobileGT is a platform and alliance around a family of PPC processors, starting with the MPC5200B (used in the first Efika) and followed by 5121e ("LimePC" etc), and three other CPU's that has yet to be released (if they ever will be released remains to be seen).

    What the quote above refers to, is the initial port to the MobileGT evaluation system (see this and this picture). This was before the Efika port.

    The "Efika MX" products (Open Client and Smartbook) is based on the i.MX515 CPU, which is ARM and not PPC.
