Subject: How strong will Star Sapphire be?

Hello to all,

  I have seen the following info about Star Sapphire:

Advanced SH7034 RISC processor (1M ROM and 256K RAM) and High Speed 20MHz energy
saving CMOS TECHNOLOGY including Hash Tables.

  How comparable is the RISC processor with DragonBall used in Palms? Since we
have already 33MHz Palms, and strong programs such as ChessTiger and ChessGenius
for Palm, does Star Sapphire have a chance to claim to be world's strongest
portable unit? Can RISC processor and/or 1M ROM add to its strength for the
deficiency in speed? Thanks.
