This brings up the issue of reference platform for the StrongARM port.
There is no one clear choice as there is for the PowerPC.  Realistically,
we probably need to pick an easily obtainable consumer StrongARM product.
The Compaq iPaq comes to mind.  However, it is not development-friendly
at the moment as it does not have peripherals such as built-in NIC, hard
drive, or serial console capabilities.

Of all the products I know of, I like the CATS board the best.  However,
the last time I investigated the CATS board, they were very expensive and
hard to find in the USA.  For some reason $600 stands out in my mind.  I
know of 10+ DNARDs in the BSD community, thus my preference for that
machine as the reference platform.
