Has Freescale given any estimate on when that next rev on the
MPC5200 will be available?

Alternately, are there other CPUs/boards that U-Boot runs on that
would be more suitable (easier to program), given the following
constraints:

1. Low power requirements (we were looking at clocking the
   MPC5200 to use ~1.5 watts).

2. Fanless

3. Ambient temperature range at least -20C to +60C

4. Enough processing power to support applications
   that can fill 1600x1200 resolution screens

5. PCI interface (to support the GPU)

I had suggested using Via C3 instead, but this was rejected
as not working in the complete temperature range (although
looking just now the ESP7000 might go -40C to +85C).
