He shouldn't be too surprised - after all, the original gcc target was
the 68k family. The ColdFire is also the original target for ucLinux
(although it is not suitable for small integrated devices like the
CF5223x), even though the Arm port is probably more popular these days.

Thanks for all suggestions.
CF5223x looks like a good chip. Reason for preferring ARM is GCC
support and prior experience with the architecture. An integrated PHY
has the obvious advantages of lower chip count, smaller PCB, and fewer
failure points. Does GCC support ColdFire?

No, That is a VoIP chip with WLAN.

Yes, it is an ASSP and they are normally not on the web site.
You need large volume to get it (50ku).

Is it the correct partnumber ? Can't find it on www.atmel.com.
Or do I have to be a first tier customer ? :-)

AT76C910 will do , but wont be available in low volume.
You will not gain any board size, since you will need external memory.
You will not gain any power consumption benefits (see above)
You will not gain any price advantage, since the 910 is more expensive than
the SAM7X.
So why do you need the integration?

Has it to be an ARM, if not => ColdFire 5223x
