I think they want to go the multicore / simd route, judging by the frequency/performace they are stating, and the note about the software video decoder.. the graphics would be also software:

"100% software-programmable"

"is based on a hybrid approach, with its general-purpose instruction set being designed from the ground up to help accelerate 3D Graphics and Video Encode and Decode"

Maybe I missed it, but while they talk a lot about GPUs, they don't
actually have one.  No surprise, since there is no open-arch GPU.
  Anyone got a lead on contacting these people so we can inform them of
