The E in the processor model number means it has an integrated DSP, so most likely it's going to be on par with the aPad/iRobot in terms of speed and what kind of multimedia it can handle. It should have similar performance to the aPad/iRobot as well...no way to tell the exact clock though unfortunately. I just know it's going to be less than 470mhz.I also highly doubt that there are going to be any decent firmware updates on this device right now, but somewhere in the future if enough of these make it to the English speaking parts of the world you'll be able to find better firmware updates for it.
