It may actually take more time to set up a development system than do the few days or a week of porting that the Atom processor may require. On the other hand, the US15W is likely to consume far more resources and literally stretch into a 9 month or more project. The US15W is not worth the effort, considering all its limitations that I have previously mentioned.
