| I attended several Intel platform and embedded systems conferences last week and they made it clear Intel will move rapidly into dual/multi core cpu's for power and heat reasons. Systems will appear by late this year. They will also be moving to eliminate parallel connectivity methods like isa, pci; replacing them with serial ata slots(4x faster than pci) and and HD drive connectors for full size and embedded systems. While it is close range in feet, a USRP board connected via sata cable would have considerable through-put. I don't know the current rates ( ~133 to 150mb/s) but the roadmap puts the upper end at 600mb/s. Board connector traces required for sata are greatly reduced from a parallel architecture.
