No, it makes absolutely no difference, because both the OMAP 2420 and the i.MX31 ship with the Imagination (think: PowerVR) MBX. Imagination are the ones who control the licensing of the driver and specifications, and it's still their decision. So even if the N800 was using the i.MX31, it would make absolutely no difference at all in terms of the MBX.
