Sounds interesting. Got any details (like price/performance?). Also,
is programming type information available?

I think George might be being a little pessimistic regarding the  price
of the et532 though. In Australia, the 32GX32 sells for about half the
price of 32532 (purely marketing policy of course). You don't need an
fpu in the et532, you have half as much memory and you only need to populate
the duart sockets if you want to. If you only want an ethernet interface,
I'd have thought you could build it for not much over half the cost of
the pc532.
