The devices were called the OMAP-L1xx rather than OMAP1xx for the specific 
reason so as to not be confused with the older OMAP1 devices!  Looks like that 
didn't quite work.  :)

Here are some fundamental differences between OMAP1 and OMAP-L1:
*  55x DSP vs 674x DSP
*  MMU on DSP for OMAP1
*  OMAP-L1 has EMAC
*  OMAP1 has OCP and L4 interconnects, not SCR

If you feel it's necessary, feel free to email anyone you want.  Personally I 
am convinced that OMAP-L1xx has little in common with OMAP1.
