My guess would be over the next 4 to 9 months. Basically, no one is
going to do a new design based on MIPS. The only one that I'm aware
of as being current is the Caseo models that run pocket PC (but I
haven't seen them in stores here of late, so maybe they've alreday
been discontinued). I'd expect it will be a supply channel issue from
now on...
