    Nice chip, but I wouldn't call it SoC, because others include much more functions (for video, audio and I/O), and this only has ethernet, admittedly a lot of them and all very clever. Router chip, I'd say.

    How hard is it to find a matching southbridge for these babies, in order to have the rest of functions demanded on a regular puter?

    There are newer SoCs announced by Applied Micro that sport a PPC464FP core (i.e. with FPU) instead of PPC464 core (i.e. lacks FPU), but only reaching up to 1 GHz:
