Tiny correction: Xilinx' combination ARM+FPGA SoC is called the Zynq (http://www.xilinx.com/products/silicon-devices/soc/zynq-7000...). This latest device from TI seems to be way higher-end than the Zynq (not surprising, since it's also newer).

Thanks, I am not a fan of phonetically obscured names :-). Xilinx's first foray into this space was the upper end Virtex series (the Virtex 4 and Virtex 5), I went back and looked at the pitch they gave me in 2005 around this. So here we are 10 years later and it seems like this stuff is finally getting closer to mainstream.
