On the EE Times article about the Open-V, I think someone related to this was 
discussing collaboration with someone representing the Open-V effort. I feel a 
bit bad for the Open-V people now, given that this seems to be virtually ready 
to ship, whereas the Open-V campaign is largely concerned with fabrication and 
will only be delivering boards in over a year's time.

One thing I find interesting is this:

"Memory: 16 KB Instruction Cache, 16 KB Data Scratchpad"

Did I misunderstand or is the "scratchpad" effectively a data cache that is 
also the full extent of the available memory? In other words, there seems to 
not be any external memory. I guess that would make the board fit in with the 
Arduino-like products it is compared to, but then one could argue that 
"microcontroller" might be more accurate than "SoC".

Still, it looks like a promising start for a range of products.
