A-Eon should have come out with at least one project that makes great use of that co-processor, maybe home automation, which was recently discussed on one of the forums, would be a great use?
Yeah, keep your 2000$ Amiga running 24/7 so can close/open your blinds!!
Thats what rPI and suchlike are for, or if you really want to do it in an Amiga-way, take an Efika + some USB-dodat, relativly cheap small and low power.
Thinking of this, Efika beat the 1st Pi to market by 5 years so this might have been something that could have sold quite few.
Main stopping point (IMO) was the lack of low power onboard GFX.
Xorro was a brainfart and so are all suggested use cases.
