Via was able to give their C7 Platform a boost in performance today. The normal processors found in mobile devices, such as the OQO 02, use the Centaur C7 line. VIA released their new Isaiah, which is two to four times as powerful. The major breakthrough is that they managed to do this while maintaining drop-in compatibility. This processor is twice as fast as its predecessor is, but uses the same resources. They accomplished this engineering feat by designing an entirely new architecture from scratch. Glenn Henry, lead CPU Designer at VIA (centaur), explains his project. More information can also be found in Glenn's Architecture brief.
