anyone know how much faster an xscale 400MHz compared to an ARM 206MHz really is?

could you explain a bit?
is it slower when doing some things ?

i did a quick google search for information comparing the xscale and arm processors.

i think the results place a real question mark on the XDA2... would people be willing to put up with something slower than the original xda?

For cpu intensive stuff against an original Xda it should be significantly faster.
