Even your update post seems to include figures lifted from wikipedia (or thin air). Example, imagination states the SGX543MP triangle througput at 35Mpolys/sec not 140M (number of cores not mentioned).

The benchmarks seem to confirm this.
Do you remember when I said that "if the iPad 2 had a retina display, I'd eat my hat?"
This reinforced a valuable lesson; Just because something hasn't been done, doesn't mean that it can't be done.

@ysss: wherever he may be
Do you remember when I said that "if the iPad 2 had a retina display, I'd eat my hat?" This was based on the knowledge that desktops/laptops have trouble pushing these resolutions and I assumed accomplishing this with a mobile was unlikely.
Well, as it turns out, the display isn't retina-class, but I'm going to eat my hat anyhow, because this years GPU technology (SGX543/Mali400/Adreno220) are all capable of pushing 'retina' resolutions, even if it hasn't been yet been embodied in a device. I'm eating said hat because my very reasons for doubting its inclusion was flat-out wrong.
This reinforced a valuable lesson that I had forgotten in that instance. Just because something hasn't been done, doesn't mean that it can't be done.
Pass the butter...

Ah, thanks for the source. And my apologies for the rude message.
Looking back, I'm rather ashamed at my behaviour. Just one of those days I suppose.
Indeed. One thing I've learned not to be ashamed of mistakes. How can a person grow if he/she doesn't admit to themselves when they've been wrong?

Nah, man I sort of know your character, tis all good, nothing to be ashamed of. I do wonder what kind of chips will come after the next-gen-next (??), you know the ones thats supposed to run Windows Next (aka version 8).

A big push among mobile chipset makers is OpenCL integration. This allows for the GPU to be used in a general way in applications for crunching computationally intense tasks. OpenCL can be used for real-time video editing, image processing, calculations, etc, or many other compute heavy tasks -- in a highly efficient way.

I'm not aware of another SoC on the market that has OpenCL support.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 looks more appealing to the Xoom to me.
