>> Astro is going to clock 40% faster than the TM5800, so the overall power dissipation will probably be about the same (~7w). <<

Just to be clear: Astro has double the VLIW as the TM5800; hence, a 40% faster clock means that Astro has 2.8X the throughput of the 5800. Now, 2.8X the throughput with the same power dissipation is a mighty big overall improvement if you ask me. Dew
