There are a variety of options that will be necessary to fit a wide range of embedded applications for which they are specifically designed. While we can make Book E fit into the traditional PowerPC tree by forcing some fixed rules, it wouldn't be fair to their flexibility or performance options. I've got a couple of things to finish up and would like to start discussing this in the next couple of weeks, as more documentation and perhaps some hardware arrives on my doorstep.
