I'm currently an Arduino Due user, but the specs on the Propeller-2 (due later this year) can not be ignored. Parallax has positively responded to the market, and they have invested in C compilers and put in ADCs on the chip, up to 92! It will be faster than the Due and include 8 Multi-processors. Impressive. If real, I'd like to see a future Arduino Board running the Propeller-2 chip.
Then someone will have to port the Arduino core to it - want to volunteer?!
