I hope that this statement:

Within the framework of the partnership ACube will act as a worldwide distributor of Hyperion's Amiga OS 4.0 operating system for a range of PPC hardware platforms
just means that Pegasos and Efika could be included in the number of supported platforms.
No it doesn't mean that, and it doesn't mean that about the SAM either.
I think this announcement doesn't say a thing about anything. The only one who can hand out OEM licenses to new partners is Amiga Inc, and I don't see them mentioned anywhere. Their interest in doing this has been moot to say the least.
The only implication you can be sure of regarding this announcement, is that Acube will now be a reseller of OS4 for the A1 and PowerUP equipped Amigas (unless of course they can come up with creative interpretations about some of the wordings regarding the stand-alone version of the OS, and find the courage to go through with it).
This announcement was not very exciting really, but maybe an upcoming follow-up announcement will change this?
MorphOS is Amiga
done right! 
MorphOS NG will be AROS
done right!
