Let's not jump to conclusions here. I didn't mean to imply that the T5 was cancelled. I guess we'll have to see if Freescale will follow through with their announcement or if the QorIQ T5 will suffer the same fate as the MPC75xx and MPC87xx.

...from their very own production (Freescale's QorIQ LS1, Applied Micro's X-Gene, LSI's ARM-based Axxia), that is.
