some interesting bits there..
1. Includes Cell as well. Does this make it more attractive to you or
would you generally like to deal w/ Cell directly?
2. Key is that they say they want to play for all GPUs, and NVidia
*is* mentioned as partner. Hedging their bets, I guess, but again, if
Apple is onboard, does NVidia really want to lose a smallish but
lucrative and growing customer?
3. Re: Gary Polhill's msg, it appears that it will support IEEE 754.
4. Looks like there is some kind of resource discovery / managment
capabilities envisioned.
And um, ok, do we really need High-Performance handhelds?? :)

Code examples start on page 19.. Scope seems pretty narrow from
that,
but I guess we'll have to wait for the spec.
