from my tests this cpu is actually ok.its the Nand thats so so so slow... and the unoptimized kernel/os.and whats from stopping them from putting it to 533 for new revisions?

This is good news. Now just get it to work like it should.

Is there any way of confirming this? If it is true I shall have to update the FAQ specs (yet again)

It would come down to if this is a true new revision with new internals ... which is possible but unlikely. If the units still contain the WM8505 they are still running at ~300 Mhz and no more. The faster ones are called something different (i.e. WM85xx in the series). Honestly, I'd rather have a hardware mp4 decoder then a faster processor, but the WM8505 has neither.

Now the question is can the device be upgraded with the new specs. Since the cpu is on a removable card so it should be possible. would be interesting to try.
