IIRC zt had announced like 2 years ago it was creating a server based
on the Marvell chipset, They had it listed on their website, but no
price attached to it.. it was more like vaporware.
There is another startup smooth-stone which seems to have industry backing.

couple it with the A15 quad's and you pretty much have a decent solution.
