I sent my email of interest and got the following:
"Dear Mr Smithson,

We have a hardware platform available that is based on the Coldfire CPU featuring 316 MIPS performance. This board can be used for the project with only minor modifications.

I for one will be getting this on release- especially if only 600EUROs- if it comes to fruition- I guess it all comes down to how many of us also register our interest!
